Vörös pont

A vadonban vadállatként vadászott turisták jól ismert témája, de új csavarokkal variálva. Az érdekes svéd helyszínek és a film csúcspontja jelentősen feljavítja az egyébként tökéletesen átlagos élményt, minimum egy logikai képtelenséggel. A rendezés megfelelő, lélektanilag összeáll, de tapasztaltabb kezekben igazi sláger lehetett volna belőle. Mint például a brit Kaliber: A valóság ösvénye. (2021.04.03)

An average Nordic survival flick. That part with the laser sight touted by the trailer, and after which the movie is called, is almost ridiculously short and unexploited. That also applies to the rest of the film, if you’re looking forward to atmospheric horror, you’ll be very disappointed because that’s not what this is about. The shabby ending doesn’t help much, either, it’s a twist that has been brutally overused (I watched something similar about two weeks ago) and is no longer surprising, especially when here you can see it coming at least twenty minutes before it actually arrives.

An enjoyable and intimate Swedish survival drama from Netflix. A romantic trip in the Swedish mountains takes a turn when an unknown sniper starts terrorizing the loving couple. It’s nicely shot, with beautiful scenery, likeable actors, occasional tension that works, and a satisfying twist that gives it a greater impact. The finale is mildly brutal and definitely uncompromising. Not a smash hit, but fans of survival movies will certainly not be offended.

Judging (not only) by the reviews here, I was expecting a bigger disaster. I'm not going to defend the film because it got too silly towards the end, but there were a few bright moments. I actually liked the concept better than if the red dot had been chasing them the whole time. On the other hand, when it was chasing them, I would have imagined it to be more intense and desperate. This way, it's a hybrid of sorts, and almost nobody's happy at the end. A weaker 3 stars (2021.08.28)
