A Simple Favour

Mysteriously advertised before its release, A Simple Favour is a rare example of modern Hollywood not overselling a film before it hits the cinema.

Skyscraper is that friend. The annoying guy down the pub who revels in telling people they’ve got something wrong, only to be found out by the quickest of Google searches. If Skyscraper was more aware of itself, it could have been a better film. As it is, it wants so desperately to be taken seriously that its biggest criticism is its sheer stubbornness.
