Just finished watching this and still feeling tense.
Terrific, intelligent script, acting is convincing across the board. From the moment it begins the tension never eases and yet it manages to do this without veering into extreme violence or outlandish implausibility. In many ways the film is just like the protagonist-measured, intelligent, highly skilled. Aaron Pierre carries the film with a sure hand. Don Johnson gives one of his best performances and manages to avoid chewing the scenery or descending into cliche. AnnaSophia Robb is terrific, as is the rest of the cast.
Some claim it's too long; I didn't want it to end.

Picturesque locations, good production values, some good actors and Mark Wahlberg, but nothing memorable. Perfect moving wallpaper to glance at occasionally while scrolling on your phone. Essentially it's a string of comfortable cliches strung together in a predictable sequence, designed to make you forget to cancel your Netflix subscription. Halle Berry looks better than ever, JK Simmons doesn't break a sweat using one of his 'grizzled' character templates.
The UK setting is puzzling because apart from the scenery it's almost wall-to-wall Americans doing American things in American ways. The Slovenian locations look beautiful but, again, they have no impact on the plot, which could easily have been generated by ChatGPT with a very short prompt.
