🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a stark social divide, pitting the glass towers of finance against concrete housing estates. Director Richard Jobson relies on Edinburgh's dual personality to amplify the desperation of the game.
What lingers after the credits is a chilling examination of how easily humanity can be commodified. This is a thriller that leaves a moral bruise long after the chase ends. — MovieFinder Editorial

Best Watched
Watch late at night to feel the chill of Edinburgh's empty streets and the race against dawn.
