Hit man thrillers are a dime a dozen, but director Dru Brown's Aussie variation on the familiar genre takes some seriously clever, nasty turns. Read full review

Although Michael J. Kospiah's script isn't exactly predictable or didactic, it does feel contrived and improbable on occasion. Read full review

Best thriller I have seen in a long time.… Expand
