Troy L.’s review published on Letterboxd:
Yes, this is a kidnap film but it's different from the others I have seen. Andi (Who is the Captor) is just a normal guy that is a teacher, very charming, friendly, hopeless romantic, and curiously rational. He meets this photographer name Clare who is basically on an adventure in the city of Berlin for the architecture. Well she immediately falls for Andi for his witty charm and great smile. They hit it off of course and it was only suppose to be for one night of erotic passion. The next day Andi leaves for work then Clare wakes up and realizes she is locked in the apartment with no way to escape. What makes this film interesting is he only harms Clare when she tries to escape but other than that, she is free to do whatever inside his apartment. Seems like he wanted to keep her as a pet almost and hope that the love between them would blossom even though he kidnapped her. It gets you thinking because while he is at work or doing other duties, you want to know what Clare is planning and does she really want to leave with how her suspect behavior is around Andi. Somethings can be predictable but it won't hurt the film for you. Impressive acting by Teresa Palmer and Max Riemelt
