Removal

The script for this thriller was really excellent. It kept me fully engaged and I was pleasantly surprised at the turns it took. I also have to give the film kudos for making this film work on what was clearly a very small budget. The only reason I'm not giving this a higher rating was the acting. The film hinges on me believing the struggle of the main characters, and, I'm sorry, I just didn't. If this film had stronger lead performances I would have been happy to score it higher, but, as it was, it had to be only three. 3/5

No one does sibling rivalry like the Duplass brothers - this was witty, biting & yet tender.  I don't know when or why I became such a Duplass brothers fan but they've really got me. Love this stuff. Well done. 4/5
