The stars here are for Olga. It was not her fault the script went flat. This starts off well' then runs out of steam on the second half.
More secondary character presence and development of would have provided better context for her story, and been much more interesting. The primary villain for example is not fleshed out or developed even near enough to provide an emotional counterbalance for the protagonist. More screen time and better writing on him alone will improve it. We need to feel and fret about how bad he is. Then we can more effectively justify Olgas journey.
It felt like she was playing against an empty person who we barely knew. It would be better had things been more realistic in the second half too
