This modern thriller finds Jason Statham stripping away bravado to play a man who wants nothing more than solitude. Living alone on a remote Scottish island, his quiet life is interrupted when a teenage girl survives a violent storm and brings danger back with her. Directed by Ricardo Isaias, the film unfolds less as an action spectacle than a meditation on guilt and past violence, with Bill Nighy and Naomi Ackie adding layers of unease. It's a story about how isolation tempts us, and how impossible it is to truly escape who we once were.
