Well made, but it cheats
From France, Lea Drucker stars as a woman who has decided to take her kids and leave her abusive husband once and for all. This is a good suspense piece, with the director building that suspense through some nice long takes. Still, one thought kept running through my mind: this whole situation could have easily been avoided had the woman just called the cops. This is even mentioned by her coworkers, but Drucker simply dismisses it with "I don't have time." It kind of bugged me (and the annoying woman behind me, who kept whispering loudly to her husband, "Why doesn't she just call the cops?"). It also cheats several times to enhance the suspense, taking away from the realistic situation.
