"Thriller" has all but come to mean "a genre that in the end descends into nonsense" and so it is refreshing to watch this sinister thriller that manages to hold itself together, just, in telling the story of an unemployed alcoholic who is suddenly tasked Red-Headed League-style to sit alone in an apartment transcribing bugged conversations for a man who purports to represent national security in France.
