Russian Roulette

About This Movie

So, 'Russian Roulette' from 2018, right? It's this low-key crime flick that dives into some dark themes. An antiques dealer, who’s clearly made some questionable life choices, comes up with this wild scheme to off his wife. The game of cat-and-mouse that unfolds is tense, almost claustrophobic at times. The pacing has this slow burn that really lets the tension simmer, building to a boiling point that's quite satisfying. The performances, while not from big names, have a raw quality that adds to the film's grittiness. What really stands out, though, is the practical effects used during some of the more intense scenes. It gives everything a tangible feel that digital effects just can’t replicate. Not groundbreaking, but definitely worth a watch for its atmosphere.
