While Unsane struggles at many moments to live up to its premise as an iPhone film, Claire Foy shines through every frame. The actress embodies fear incarnate, and her turn can be breathtaking as she lives out her trauma. Her reality feels real to many women, who struggle with men who believe they own the women they meet.

Foy turns the tables on her attacker and stalker, refusing to become a victim. This particular man has taken everything from her, and the actress fills the screen with fear and determination. It proves that Foy is a legitimate movie star, and her turn here should help assure her a nomination for First Man.
