The acting is hit-or-miss throughout and the pacing of the dialogue really does not sell these characters as real people. It's just sub-par writing. There are several moments where character reactions do not match the tone of the scene or the situation at hand, which can often break the tension in unintended ways. That being said, it does still manage to build tension just enough to keep you watching. Overall, it's worth a watch, even if it's ultimately underwhelming.

This is a really well-paced, taut thriller that legitimately keeps you guessing as the protagonist's paranoia seems justified at times ... and then maybe just a symptom of his unresolved feelings about his divorce.

Leaves all the standard horror frustrations until the end, but that doesn't really make it much better than most other horror movies. I guess the characterization is generally better and Logan Marshall-Green does a solid job. Flashbacks were a bit heavy.

Builds some nice tension and uncertainty throughout, and the cast do a decent job even if the script makes it seem a bit "improv" at times. The final segment and ending were alright in the grand scheme of things, but resulted in some minor eye-rolling on my behalf. This felt well-handled even if it felt like it could be sharpened up at points - Kusama definitely has skill. Interesting. Doesn't Tammy Blanchard look like Michelle Monaghan?

Overall, I loved the ominous tone and tension that permeates throughout the first 3/4 of the film, was a little let down by how that tension was released in the final act.

Slow paced, well played, understated, and nicely ambiguous (for the most part). I enjoyed this one a lot.
