NightOwl77 – 7/10
“I really enjoyed the moody atmosphere and the slow burn mystery. The plot kept me guessing, though the pacing dragged a bit in the middle. Overall, a solid thriller for fans of noir.”
GoreHound – 5/10
“The setup was promising, but it didn't live up to the horror hype. There are some creepy moments, but the scares are more psychological than visceral. I found myself losing interest at times.”
CinephileX – 8/10
“As a fan of Brazilian cinema, I appreciated the nuanced storytelling and strong performances. The film's twist took me by surprise and the eerie conclusion stuck with me. Highly recommended for those who like cerebral horror.”
ScaryFan88 – 6/10
“It has its moments of tension and a intriguing premise, but the execution felt uneven. I liked the detective angle and the mysterious insurance case, but some subplots felt unnecessary. Still, a decent watch for a rainy night.”
