The film centres around The Mousetrap play in the West End in the 50's. I saw it just a couple of years ago. After the 100th performance it is being looked at to be made into a film. However differences on how it should be adapted come to surface and it's not long before someone is bumped off.
A clever take as this film almost becomes a film version of the story. Lots of scenes from the Theatre where the play is on feature.
Saoirse Ronan is the shining light here as the inexperienced Constable on the case. If you like the play or an Agatha Christie Whodunit you should enjoy.

Lead Niamh Algar gives us a sympathetic and increasingly unhinged protagonist to get behind, even when things really take a sinister turn. You so desperately want her to be right in her suspicions, even as the reality grows clearer, and Algar carries all of this with aplomb. It's her show through and through.
The constant foreboding atmosphere is complimented by a brooding music score, plenty of great cinematography and a colour scheme that manages to be vibrant and bleak. The finale in particular nails it's landing with the help of some hugely effective and stylish editing tricks.
A hugely impressive and tight debut feature length from Prano Bailey-Bond. I'm excited to see what she brings to the table next.
