Saw this on Netflix. Has nice production value, shot well, good background music soundtrack. It's uses a 'hands off' modern 'documentary' realistic story telling style, as opposed to the heavy handed hollywood romantic comedy overacting style.
I liked the characters (not to mention the female is lead stunningly captivating). The mystery & investigation is OK, doesn't go into those unreal hollywood twists (like the chic is a terrorist). I was invested, and was looking forward to a big 'confrontation' between the two main characters. I don't think I'm giving anything away if I say they do meet (or else people would seek out a destroy the filmakers), but it was much too anticlimactic, short & simple for me.
