    "We need to talk about this" - Trafficker, - 2021 Ranked: https://boxd.it/aL2Ys Some will be disappointed that this isn't more exploitation style revenge but that isn't really the purpose of this movie. This is straight forward and to the point with no frills. This…

    For me it has been a total waste of film. The idea and the concept were very good but I feel that the film has been left halfway. It has very good scenes (especially the one at Bobby's house) and the protagonist is brilliant, but beyond that I feel like they could have…

    A last-resort descent into hell, Catch The Fair One is as much a stark revenge thriller as it is story of seething grief, destructive guilt, and a grim spotlight on the trafficking of Native American women. An in-media-res first act entrenched in grueling preparation sets…

    I like watching heroes that are tough but not indestructible. Kali Reis' Kaylee isn't a revenge mastermind. She's vulnerable, a little over her head, and you can see her figuring things out as she goes along, improvising. So even when the template is something that we've…

    CATCH THE FAIR ONE is a bleak film that pulls no punches in its hard hitting revenge story of a Native American fighter looking for her missing sister. Kali Reis gives a powerful breakthrough performance that knocked me out. Unglamorous, chillingly brutal & left me wanting…

    Such great cinematography! We should've gotten this right after Taken/Harry Brown. Wish the dialogue wasn't so stilted.

Although Wladyka foregrounds the movie’s razor-sharp edge—there’s a torture scene midway through that’s especially shocking—there’s a political undercurrent to the story, as well as an emotional one, that give Catch The Fair One uncommon resonance.

Wladyka’s film is always gripping, always searching, and always testing the boundaries of its protagonist and its audience.

Poignant and raw, the film is effective in all the ways it should be. While it does a better job engaging with its revenge-fueled storyline in lieu of a more familial exploration in the wake of the tragedy, the film still manages to land a heart wrenching blow.
