Sure, it starts with a bang—literally—with a night full of gun crime that sets the stage for Casey Roberts' journey. But as the film progresses, it feels like it gets lost in its own plot twists. The lead's performance is solid, but some character motivations come off as muddled, leaving viewers scratching their heads rather than feeling the emotional punch intended. Louisa Warren's direction has moments of brilliance, yet the film occasionally drags, making it hard to stay engaged. While it tackles serious themes of identity and redemption, it doesn't quite hit the mark as effectively as it could. If you're in the mood for a psychological thriller, it might be worth a watch, but don't expect a flawless execution. Show less
