What a fantastic movie. Genuinely keeps you on the edge of your seat and is all around a fantastic thriller . Would probably watch again even tough I know what is going to happen. Takes a bit to build the plot, but never lets the intensity slip then. Amazing!

The violence was a little much for me. But overall, this is a masterpiece. Beautifully adapted from Sarah Water's Fingersmith with twists and turns of it's own. Charming and seductive!

An enthralling masterpiece, well crafted and brutally honest. Very engrossing, if you give it your full attention you will be handsomely rewarded. A must see!
