Nice little movie, although I shouldn't call it little, it's professionally made, with quality production value, better than 9 out of 10 DTV movies with Nic Cage and Mel Gibson of late, all filmed on location, not inside one set and a green room, like Marvel cartoons, which is refreshing. It's an old fashioned real movie.

But being written and directed by a woman, it's all about 'girl power' and 'strong independent women', so that's popular 'trigger warnings' for you. I liked it.
Just sad to see Juliette Binoche old, and Morgan Freeman even older, but he was old when I started watching movies 30 years ago, I'm now getting old, so all is good with him, everyone should hope to live as well and as long as he.
Have to point out excellent young Hala Finley, being 13 years old, she's as good as everyone here. Especially with a shotgun pointed at two opponents, while pushing drunk Binoche into a truck.
