I watch a lot of my movies while I'm riding my Peloton. I'll just scroll through Netflix movie section until I find something worth while and turn it on. I did not nearly expect this to be worth my time but boy did it excite

The premise of the entire film taking place inside a 911 calling center is already intriguing to start with. A famous inventor once said "limitation breeds innovation". While I understand this is based off another foreign film with the same plot, it does a great job of conveying it's thoughts

The main issue I found that people have with this movie is that the main character is both a cop and has anger issues. I personally don't have a problem with actors, hear me out, acting! Not every character from every movie has to be this superhero that we all relate to. Yes the guy is an a$$hole who did terrible things to people, but he pays for that. He is empathetic and drives a compelling plot, so if you can just look past your own personal politics there's a really good plot to watch.

OVERALL RATING: 4.5/5 ★'s
