Reception
Leslie Felperin of the Guardian gave it 2 stars, writing "Sadly, it’s more of a mud pie of contemporary thriller tropes that don’t hold together for long." The Times's Kevin Maher's 2 star review was subtitled "This foolhardy film never feels like anything other than kitschy ‘let’s pretend’" Anton Bitel wrote in RealCrime Magazine "Accordingly, as this hybrid film, all at once fish-out-of-water thriller and domestic tragedy, constantly switches between these two modes, it generates considerable ambiguity, even mystery from its own mismatched, dysfunctional plotting – with everything hidden in plain sight".
