Honestly keeps you wondering even while the credits roll. And while _Take Me_ might not be great, it's a rare movie that can do that. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. While I'm not a big fan of either Pat Healy or Taylor Schilling, they both do a decent job in their roles here. This is a great example of an immersive adventure of absurdity. The premise of servicing kidnapping adventures is golden, if problematic which is basically cinematic. The main contention ends up being a sort of hat on a hat, I think played for comedic purposes. It most likely would have been better if it had been a almost more of a prank kidnapping from the kidnapper's perspective, rather than a matter of confusion of identity. There is a lot of psychological aspects are interesting about the type of people that would employ or provide these sort of services, and a good bit of humor, usually absurdist or misfortune based. While there are likely better movies to watch, if this looks interesting to you, then it will probably be.
