This movie is very forgettable, due to its uninteresting plot and weak execution.
The trailer for this movie seemed interesting to me, but the movie doesn't go any further, it doesn't make an effort to bring us an interesting story or at least intriguing enough to remember it for a long time. The low budget is understandable, but other thrillers of this type like 'Searching' have a more solid script and a very intelligent execution despite its low budget, in this film the creators simply did not make the effort to do something of that type, they made a very forgettable movie. The script is not the best, it does not give a broad explanation about the characters, nor about what is happening in the film, everything is very superficial, the direction does not make an effort to give us a broad vision of the place where the protagonist is, neither does the tension increase during the scenes, there is always a very flat and weak tone of tension, and very rarely you get moved by the emotions of the protagonist. Naomi Watts's performance does not save this forgettable script, even her interpretation falls short unlike other recent works, it does not go further. The editing could have been better but the mediocrity and laziness on the part of the director prevents this from being a remarkable factor, there are even scenes where the camera moves too much and you can't see anything. Of the few redeemable things are the moments you can empathize with the protagonist, despite the stupidities and inconsistencies that she does, you understand her concern and her impotence, there are also some moments at the beginning where the tension is effective but this doesn't last long.
It was an idea that could be exploited much better, but laziness and mediocrity lead this film to be one more of the bunch and that you will forget in a few weeks due to the little impact that the story generates and the little tension that manages.
