    Not recommended, or may be fine as a rental depending on your mood. There were two issues present: 1. The pursuit by three separate men of the main character as a love interest was hard to believe - a fiancé, a newly divorced single, and an obsessed creep, all just had to get to her, for some reason? 2. Character break of the villain somewhere in the middle was also not convincing, as there was zero backstory or indication of pre-existing character flaw. 3. The emergency courtesy text sent by "close friends" Positives: 1. The movie did not leave the audience hanging at the end as is the trend for current thriller releases.
