Even though you can see the twist coming a mile away, this is a tour-de-force of what you can do with a tiny budget and a great story. This British thriller involves a brutal kidnapping and imprisonment of the titular Alice Creed, and the majority of time spent, is within an apartment with her and her kidnappers. This film was made for less than a million dollars and it goes to show that you don’t need money to make a visually slick and stylish film; you just need a good story.
