Good story, good cast, but too little suspense and mystery due to the short playing time.
The beginning of the film is actually quite good. No (long) intro, but straight to the point and it is immediately clear what is going on.
Actually, the story is so good that in my opinion this could have been developed into a top film, but because everyone was quickly okay with the situation, the only question was who had which role.
As a result, the film lost a large part of the mystery content and the makers could have done much more with it.
Towards the end all the flashbacks fall into place in the right way and there are some more plot twists, only these followed each other so quickly that it is also a shame that nothing is actually done with these twists.
So much could have been better worked out, but that doesn't work in just 1.5 hours.
Ultimately a decent movie.

A little bit of yelling and pushing and pulling in the beginning – such an aggressive attitude is of course understandable when you wake up in such a disorienting situation, but at a certain point I got a little tired of that rooster thing, even though it was then served up by a number of capable actors. The second plot line brought some fresh air, but as the punch line approached I was more and more reminded of the forced nature of the amnesia from that gas bottle, and with that my interest slowly but surely waned.

Reasonable crime thriller, but mystery was little involved. Nice for 1 x but that's it.
