The film tries to explore the Good Muslim-Bad Muslim debate, but falls short of providing substantial content for a meaningful discussion. The characters themselves are reduced to Twitter-like debating without adding any depth to the discourse. After leaving the theatre, one may not feel invested in the lives lost or the terrorists' motivations. The portrayal of a neighboring Muslim country is likely to be controversial. Nevertheless, the film is a tense hostage drama that prompts reflection. However, the ultimate purpose of the film may leave the viewer questioning its relevance. The film's cinematic execution is flawed, as it struggles to find a consistent tone and fails to balance its various elements effectively. It vacillates between being dramatic and subtle, humorous and ironic, resulting in an unconvincing and disjointed viewing experience.
