(Well, daddy (Rutger Hauer) was a government censor...) While Carice van Houten has a go for broke attitude, she does not have

Adept
talents for entertaining, tongue - in - cheek scenarios, Wingard and Barrett exert
equal levels of over-the-top bits with their latest endeavor, but with a sharper mix
of subversive commentary and tightly plotted thrills that feels like an homage to the off - the - cuff glory days
of John Carpenter.
