The premise is fantastic—a father taking drastic measures to protect his daughter—but as the film progressed, I felt it lost some steam. The performances are solid, especially the lead, who brings a relatable depth to a desperate father. However, the pacing sometimes falters, leaving moments that could have been gripping feeling a bit drawn out. The moral dilemmas presented are interesting, but I wish they had been explored more deeply. It’s a decent watch if you enjoy thrillers, but it doesn't quite reach the heights it aims for. If you're looking for a film that tackles family issues with a side of suspense, give it a go, but manage your expectations. Show less
