Writer/Director Leigh Whannell has presented us with a fine thriller starting scene 1 – You become immediately invested in the escape without having seen who, why, where an escape is even needed.

Well‘s book “The Invisible Man”…

Obviously PTC scheduled it at the right time, as we're coming up on Ash Wednesday and the Lenten Season.

The letter leaves Mae unsure of how to proceed, until she connects with journalist Michael Block (Lakeith Stanfield), who is working on his own story about Mae’s mom. The story travels back and forth from present to past in a languorous mode, this is a film, not a movie.
