CGiii Comment

An impressive low-budget feature - the dialogue is a little heavy-handed at times and the acting by the support, a little too earnest in places.

Ferdinando is appropriately (and chillingly) controlled - the similarities with Nielsen are too obvious.

If Johnson had stepped back - just a few paces from his project and collaborated - this could have turned out to be an extraordinary piece of work.

Having said that - the intensity and control proves that Johnson will go onto to do bigger things.
