A ‘twisty’ Colin Farrell thriller movie is climbing up the streaming charts

Colin Farrell stars in the movie alongside an Oscar winner.

Recently added to Prime Video, the film follows John Clancy (Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins, The Silence of the Lambs), a doctor with psychic abilities who lives in isolation. From the mere touch of a person, he can see fragments of that person's past and future.

Desperate for a breakthrough, the agents request Clancy's help. While initially reluctant, the psychic agrees and together the three hunt for the elusive killer (Farrell), who anticipates their every move.

Solace was only given a limited cinema release after its initial US distributor, Relativity Media, went bankrupt. It earned mostly negative reviews from critics, who criticised it for being "far-fetched" and derivative of other serial killer thrillers.

That said, some praised the movie's performances (particularly by Farrell and Hopkins) and twists.
