I guess Amazon went to the bargain basement to source this crap movie - thankfully I get more with Prime than just movies.
This movie that looks as if it was a high school visual arts project.

lifelinespublishing10 February 2020This is an honest to goodness review....the story was hard to believe first and foremost, one cannot broadcast something without some kind of trace, plus I wish the main characters should have brought more passion to their roles, it leaves a bland taste in the viewers. poor ending as well.....
a must avoid if possible..... -
bemyfriend-4018418 February 2021The protagonist looks like Squeaky Fromme. Film is great! Until the end. It had a "The Rhythm Section" feel. Very intriguing, compelling, and had me wanting to see what's next. The end, not so much. Does she die? We're not sure. Was the assassin with the saddle shoes, the John Galt figure on TV? We don't know. Who killed him? We don't know. Everyone seemed to have very long noses, though.

The movie starts with our protagonist talking to someone, that she has poisoned, softly coaxing him toward his peaceful and gentle death.
What sort of assassin stays to hold your hand and coax you to a long sleep? "I'm so sorry, I shot you, there's a big hole in your chest, you're bleeding out, it will all be over in a minute, close your eyes".
Watching this movie, I felt like the guy at the beginning had it easy. He was gone in 3 minutes, and I had to suffer the rest!
The plot. Someone interrupts a TV broadcast during a football game in Spain. Unnamed individuals in the UK sentence him to death, and the softly-softly protagonist is sent to kill him. The viewer is then subjected to a series of banal montages, interrupted by the occasional chats she holds with deranged conspiracy theorists, who don't progress the story, some news reporting about the strange broadcasts and some superficial investigation.
Movie assassins are given targets, locations and money. They try not to be seen, operating in the shadows, and providing a quick, clean and efficient kill, before disappearing like vapour.
This movie blurs the lines of assassin and investigator, making the assassin do all of the leg work, while never getting anywhere close to understanding who the target is or what their motivation is.
To spice things up, a second killer is following behind the first, supposedly tidying up loose ends, or putting said deranged people out of their misery. None of the kills has any meaning and is as superficial as the investigation that preceded it.
It all comes to an abrupt end, where the filmmaker ran out of ideas or just didn't know how to finish the story. We are no closer to the target, who continues to broadcast, with no idea why he is doing it, whom he is working for, or why he has to be stopped. We don't know why the second killer is following the first, and so everything remains unresolved.
In my opinion, this low/no-budget 'thriller' is guilty of misrepresentation. There is a weak plot, no thrills, no action, lacklustre performance, too many montages, and confusing departures.

kosmasp31 December 2022No pun intended - this also had a different title when I found it online to stream (the ads that broke the "experience" where a welcome distraction ... also way better value than anything in the movie itself). But does any of that matter? I would argue not. While the movie has good intentions and you may for once have a little more sympathy for the low budget effort here ... there are so many bad factors here, that it would be a wonder if you actually are entertained by this.
There are some reviews that seem to deal with this kindly ... on the other hand, they also just might be teasing to put it mildly. If I'd say this is the best movie ever - and even better (worse): the best acting ever to be put on film (or digital) ... that would be me making fun of it all. Some may even call it trolling. On the other hand, if someone really feels that way and loves this: good for them! I really mean that - anyone enjoying something makes me happy. Still got to warn most people who will feel like they have been robbed of valuable life time ... no offense, but while I know they (filmmakers and all others involved) tried their best, I hope they have better results with their next efforts ... -
martinsamper20 May 2020That movie is very original and creative. It's a spy thriller but in a special way and the theme behind the story is awesome: vibration! Totally recommended

compugor9 October 2020Comparable more to a visit to a museum than to a them park. Slow, quirky, vague and action-free but the lead actress is such a feast for the eyes that her screen presence is riveting enough to carry the whole film... with a natural beauty like art, every move she makes demands focused attention. The never-explained mysteriousness is presented intriguingly enough to hold interest in the story, with appropriate supporting performances.
