Wrens

About This Movie

So, 'Wrens' is one of those films that catches you off-guard. It's structured around this tight, somewhat claustrophobic setup, where an Ice Cream Man finds himself at the mercy of a cranky hitman. The tension really builds as they navigate their bizarre, unsettling dynamic, all within the confines of the van. The pacing is deliberate but never drags, keeping you hooked through the oddball banter and unexpected moments. The practical effects are minimal but effective, enhancing the gritty vibe of the whole piece. The performances are raw and authentic – you can feel the desperation and irritation from both characters. It’s not typical thriller fare, which is probably what makes it stand out in a crowded genre.
