Strong performances, effectively gritty atmosphere, taut direction, but it's rather repetitive and over-long, with a deflated ending (the pointless timeline twist and the confrontation with Cyrus which the whole film has been building up to is hugely anti-climactic - maybe this is the point, that she was the bad person, the destroyer all along, and he was just some loser criminal, but when the film has been portraying him as a genius manipulator supervillain for two hours, it's a bit of a letdown to have him show up for ten seconds then get shot; like, we already know she was at fault, the film spelled it out for us already).
Rating: Fine
