A Friendly Fire (2018) dives into the murky waters of trust and betrayal. Daniel, played with a quiet intensity, finds his orderly life as a chemistry teacher spiraling into chaos thanks to a manipulative friend and a desperate drug dealer. The film's pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to build slowly, creating a heavy atmosphere that feels almost suffocating at times. The practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the gritty realism without overshadowing the characters' emotional journeys. There’s something striking about how it portrays the fragility of human relationships, which feels both raw and relatable. The performances are solid, grounding the narrative in a way that keeps you engaged, even when the stakes are murky.
