How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lean, propulsive action thriller where a hired killer's moment of conscience sets off a relentless chain reaction. Taut and violent, it's a film that doesn't linger on questions, just keeps moving forward.
