I love when movies manage to keep me watching. Whatever you do, leave me wanting more and make me want to know the resolution! Somehow, this movie made me giggle almost the whole time and the script was so well-done that I've never been able to guess where the story will take me.

Now I realize that this is a very low budget movie but for a low budget movie, it offered me an amazingly rich experience. That's what I love about a movie! You may want to see 1000 cars destroyed and lots of buildings in flames but if you are like me, you'd need something more than that.

The end was pretty extreme and dark, maybe a little bit in dissonance with the flow and vibe of the movie, (even though there's the danger flowing all the way to the end, in different doses at different times), and maybe this type of resolution leaves us with a more useful and realistic takeaway - sometimes you meet amazingly skilled predators and what makes them so skilled is the fact that you can't tell what's their next move.

The script writer has my full appreciation since they managed to portrey a text book predator with a remarkable artistic touch.
