Much Better Than Expected

Emma hates violence and has even called a timeout in her relationship after her guy struck a fella who hit him. Totally self defense but she doesn't like it. She is on her way to Karoo to spend some time with her father when her car breaks down and she sees a group of drug runners kill a police officer. She is spotted by the men and must now fight for her life.

Came across this by chance and I was pleased with it. While it isn't a film that hasn't been done, it was done well. The main actress isn't someone I am familiar with but she did a great job with her role. The story didn't have a whole lot of depth but the details they chose to portray were well suited.

I'm glad I came across it. I take my chances with films like this. There are some that are real bummers but when I find one I enjoyed it is worth it. This is one of those.
