At times a sobering drama, and others it’s something far more certifiable, Condition of Return is, at least, never a formularized journey.

The drama is engaging, with Cain and McCord playing off each believably. Even if the conclusion is ridiculous to some, this is still well worth catching.

3/5

It doesn't necessarily break any new ground in the psychological thriller genre, but its reveals are compelling enough that it will keep you thinking about it after the film is over.

Slides into absurdity quickly, exploring betrayals, suicide, domestic trouble, and Satanic rituals with all the subtlety of a soap opera, sprinting away from any potential gravity the opening scene conjures.

A bold spin on a tired structure, Condition of Return’s unexpected ties to horror enrich the story and elevate the enjoyment factor.

The acting is atrocious, the theology is incoherent, and the harsh lighting makes it all look like a cheap soap opera.

I love psychological thrillers, and this one was good. Great dialogue between the Dr. and prisoner. But as I was watching, all of a sudden, BAM! It was over! Very confused about the ending. Didn't quite seem like an ending.

Oh my goodness! Was this a mess. The acting was unbearable. Sad, sad State of affairs when a movie like this was made.
