So it's good to have to watch even though the story, the writing, the directing, the cinematography, the choices each actor makes, are dreadful. At least there was something to watch, which seems to be the Netflix business model.… Expand

For me, this movie delivers just that. I found it enjoyable, and couldn't wait to see how Jennifer figured things out.

I also appreciate that it makes an effort to play with some classic thriller/suspense tropes, and does so pretty successfully. You won't find too much ground breaking here in terms of cinematography or story, but it is fun to watch if you enjoy seeing mysteries unfold.… Expand

A by-the-book thriller with few thrills and even fewer scares. On the positive side though, Brenda Song plays an impressive lead and Dennis Haysbert is always provides a welcomed screen presence.

On the positive side though, Brenda Song plays an impressive lead and Dennis Haysbert is always provides a welcomed screen presence. The direction provides some decent tension in some moments but the film fails in story and writing. The movie does nothing to avoid the many thriller cliches and really let's it self down before it has a chance to get going… Expand

Netflix I'm trying to defend you and then you pull out this crap.
It can't be done like that.

Not the most creative story but I thought it was put together well enough to keep me hanging in suspense, while still making me feel a great deal of sympathy for the female lead in this picture. The poor girl went through hell.

It's got more production value and a more energetic pacing and a slicker feel but it's still a guilty pleasure, hot mess, cinematic trash. Its all by the numbers as a young woman is attacked and than awakens with amnesia. Her supposed husband played by hunky Mike Vogel (Texas Chainsaw Massacre "03") picks her up. He's living and respectful at first until a dark side emerges and she begins to suspect he's not who he says he is. It's very cliched down to the Allstate guy playing a detective who just shows up as s tragic distraction. It's not memorable but its entertaining and let's face it it's not aiming high and in that regard it's a minor success.

3/5… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is not my least favorite movie of 2019 but it is far from my favorite. This movie was a good time filler but it was very predictable and not as suspenseful as I hoped. Brenda Song and Mike Vogel did give a good performances. Overall not the worst movie I have ever seen.… Expand
