Very strong performance from David Oyelowo, in a movie that gives off the shining vibes. It's twist is predictable but I thought was still emotionally effective when revealed.

Powerful story of trauma carried by Oyewolo’s captivating performance. In fact, all performances were gripping, even with some iffy pacing throughout.
