    Romp! Heavy on the dialogue, good acting, lots of espionage. Might be a little forgettable in comparison to Soderbergh's other banger released this year Presence. Really liked it.

    ★★★

    Great fun concept, really interesting and done well, but just a little bit too long. That said, you definitely should watch this unless a movie about trying to find meaningful ways to be creative during COVID triggering.

    ★★★½

    Feels like Kiyoshi Kurosawa just wanted ro make a movie to try out some rad lighting techniques and shoot some beautiful reflections and ended up making one very spooky banger.
    Def using techniques he perfected in Pulse and Cure. Every shot, all the set design, it is worthy of framing and putting on a wall, it's a bit distracting.
    It gets rather bleak by the end and a little silly and loses its momentum with 30 mins to spare. That said I fully vibed this and think it's almost as good as other Kiyoshi Kurosawa bangers.
