Directed by Leigh Whannell, the film stars Elizabeth Moss, Aldis Hodge, Storm Reid, and Harriet Dyer. Forbes’ Scott Mendelson writes, “This is all anchored by a terrific ‘in nearly every frame of the movie’ performance from Elisabeth Moss. She has become something of an heir to Jennifer Connelly’s ‘feel bad cinema’ crown (even as ‘cinema’ now includes prestige TV).”
