FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/relay-review/
"Relay begins with a fresh and intriguing proposition, sustained by strong performances and an immersive atmosphere, but it loses impact by opting for easy narrative shortcuts in the final stretch.
Riz Ahmed once again confirms his talent in complex, understated roles, while Lily James and Sam Worthington bring emotional intensity and credible threat. Still, the execution doesn't quite match the ambition of its premise.
With a less forced ending, it could have easily become one of the year's most striking thrillers. Instead, it remains a competent but frustrating experience, one that deserves recognition for the ideas it raises but also criticism for the opportunities it squanders."
Rating: B-
