A thriller with a surprise twist about the NSA Deputy Director, who needs a genius plan to save his child from a kidnapper, who wants him to betray the privacy of all US citizens and make him the next Snowden with a devious marketing plan.
Ridiculous and predictable thriller that features Jason London overacting, and making really stupid decisions, and Fiona Dourif probably doing her best with some terrible material and dialogue. This is one of those movies that is a single location which can work (see Phone Booth) but even that movie action takes place elsewhere, in this everything takes place over a monitor or off-screen; makes sense with the twist but nevertheless makes for a less-than-captivating thriller. 1.5/5
