"It was certainly interesting seeing a more restrained performance from an energetic talent like Walton Goggins, and he works well opposite the well-constructed ensemble cast." - Rob Morse, ScreenRant



"I can't help but feel that this film was a bit too low-key compared to the other collaborations of writers John Malone and Jimmy Ellis. This lower energy led to bit of an episodic feel that doesn't help the overall mystery." - Paul Ontkean, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

"The film plays like a post-apocalyptic Agatha Christie film, which is a decidely novel approach to the 'whodunit' genre. Add in some fun casting, and you're in for a good time at the movies." - Michael Wilmington, Rolling Stone



Rated R for violence, some language and sexuality/nudity.
