ScreenIt C. Fuchs While the film doesn't really deliver anything new to the dystopian sub-genre of action-dramas, it works, for the most part, in being a contemporary western of sorts, with an Eastwood style character driving the story through his singular desire. Beautifully shot and moody in its slow burn approach. | 12 | |
