One of the professional reviews said it was technical and didn’t leave room for the viewer to feel anticipation or tension. I totally disagree! I felt so much tension and was so engaged I wasn’t aware of the time.
I only read the reviews after the movie as I was wondering how this one had previously gone unnoticed by me, as I’m a huge Russell Crowe fan. It’s well acted and a great movie. Very intriguing and time well spent. (I have not tried anything new with my tennis balls.)
