The idea of a taxi driver getting caught up with a serial killer has all the makings of a thrilling ride, yet the execution felt a bit lacking. The lead performance was solid, pulling off the terror and confusion of the situation well, but some scenes dragged on longer than necessary. The film tries to delve into deeper themes about chance encounters, but it sometimes loses its grip on the suspense that should have propelled it forward. It’s not a bad film by any means, but I expected more thrills and chills. If you enjoy a slower burn with character exploration, you might find it engaging. Show less
