3.5/5
Reverence is still a gripping ride for most of the film. I’d just temper expectations when it comes to its conclusion. Go to Full Review

Setting this morose thriller at Christmastime feels like a perverse middle finger to the audience. Go to Full Review

Rebecca A @Justthefactspeeps 19h I was bored. The script was too rehearsed, and it seems like they were all just waiting for the person before them to speak so that they could jump in with their own lines. What actually forced me to turn it off was when they were at the ex- wifes house, and the dad came in. He then started to yell at the detective. ( so unessessary) Just as an actor , he should have refused that line. He made himself look like he was playing a game of jump rope and was just waiting his turn, to jump in with his lines and then when he was yelling, he sounded like a child, that wasn't getting his way, because he wasn't hearing what he wanted to hear... not a gripping script...sorry. đŸ˜”đŸ¥±đŸ¤· See more Anonymous B @AnonBunnie Jun 11 God awful. Waste of time, no ending and a barely there plot. They make out the dad to be some kind of Rambo (he asks permission to use any means necessary to find his daughter) only for him to fail at that. See more BATUNGI G @RT48037131 Apr 15 I can't believe what I have watched.... Next time hire Mr bean. Totally boring and long for nothing See more V.A. H @Moscow Feb 8 Pure Garbage. It's like they didn't have a scriptwriter. They tried to avoid a basic formula for what this could have been (a formula basically satisfying missing person thriller) and ended up an excuse for wasting 2 hours that seemed like 10. None of the characters have depth or are likable, and no one even remembers the missing girl halfway into the film. The lead character is a failure at everything he does, apparently due to his PTSD. The worst part is the ending, Which is no ending, totally unresolved, but depressing . Do Not waster your time and energy on such a downer of a rotten film that has no qualities whatsoever. Not an action film, not a thriller, not a whodunnit, just a nothing nothing nowhere film, bleak and sad. See more Angelica T @acarrillo Feb 7 Loved the lawyer he was great! See more Debby C @Debsdelight Jan 20 Too long, too boring, bad acting, meandering plot, not one likeable character in the whole movie and underwhelming conclusion. 2 hours of my life I can't get back. Give it a miss! See more Read all reviews
