Too long and frustrating?

First, Isabelle Hooper’s choice: she spends her time on lipstick and walking. “I was holding a cup in my hand with a bitter look. I don’t get it, or I’m missing something about saying it’s a thriller… yes, I’ve seen more spectacular.Powered by Bamboo45.
In turn, Math179 found the movie “Disappointing. It feels more like a poorly written, slow and not very well acted series! Even if some scenes are interesting. I was quite bored, it feels like we are going in circles for almost 2 hours.”
