Reviews

By Andres Gomez

Good story about the drama after the terrorist attach in London. Specially good Blethyn's performance and the prejudices of his character. Kouyaté's presence could be hypnotic but I really failed on appreciating it. The script could have had a better development during the search in London since it seems like they are looking everywhere but in the most obvious places: their own home and their working/studing places ...
