Although we won't find here many cheap, emotional tricks, we can feel that the movie didn't get the most from that complicated issue which is the death penalty. Even if Apprentice leaves us with some thoughts, this controversial topic could have been more used in film to strike at spectator's mind and give him feelings how he would have be the executioner, the man who is a just tool in the hands of justice system.
