Movie Reviews
Reviews:
"Boasting excellent performances by screen veterans Peter Mullan and Gerard Butler, the latter delivering one of his best turns in years....The film proves highly effective with its slowly ratcheted up tension and eerie atmospherics." - 01/03/2019 Hollywood Reporter
"The stark, craggily exposed beauty of the locations conjures a mood of primal peril in Jorgen Johansson’s widescreen cinematography, and other tech/design contributions are atmospheric." - 01/03/2019 Variety
"Mullan, his voice like a rock avalanche, has select moments in which he monologues to the unseen ghosts of his loved ones..." - 01/04/2019 RogerEbert.com
