I watched this movie in five minutes (spoilers)


I got bored almost instantly watching this movie, so I watched it by just skipping ahead random intervals and watching just enough to glean some context.
Tell me if I missed anything...
Girl in nightclub, meets "friendly" strangers, gets taken in by them - they kidnap her and use her as a pawn in their crime spree. She is used in some sort of exchange with another criminal as collateral. She winds up back with the original group that kidnapped her. She appears to develop some sort of Stockholm Syndrome where she develops a deeper bond. She winds up escaping (after the hostage takers are involved with a shootout with police). There is a large sum of money involved, and it's stashed in with some baby. She takes the money and leaves - Her face is visibly disturbed as a result of the entirety of the experience, as she walks down the street and the movie ends.
Yawn... I can't see spending an hour and a half on this movie, but it was ok for five minutes I guess.

Completely wrong. Sorry.

She is a willing participant in everything.

One of the highlights that you probably missed by skipping ahead is the
one-take film making. 2+ hours in one take.

I have my problems with the characters, but this film is a technical masterpiece.

Sounds like a much better movie than the one I watched. They should have hired you as the scriptwriter.
