Review of Retreat (2011) by Phil N — 09 Feb 2012
Martin (Cillian Murphy) and wife Kate (Thandie Newton) head to a remote island home to try and patch up their marriage, but their break is shattered by the arrival of an injured soldier (Jamie Bell). What he tells them is unbelievable.
.. or is it? This low key thriller marks a promising debut for director Carl Tibbetts; what looks on paper to be a run of the mill home invasion type movie actually has a bit more depth and intrigue to it, and Tibbetts throws in some neat twists along the way.
Superior stuff.
