Its made very nicely and acting is top notch but until the final act it does not come alive. It struggles to find a strong footing in middle act specially with Donald Sutherland. Elizabeth Debicki comes up with another brilliant performance though at this point its a very familiar role for her. Cales Bang does really well here. It needed more menace and more playfulness with better emotional stakes to be built in the first two-thirds to make it a stand-out as such its just a passable but well-made movie.
