This is an action thriller that looks to use a single location on the traveling bus to keep the tension contained. However, this doesn’t help make this as interesting as it believes. The fact that Freddy isn’t made out to be a nice guy doesn’t help. This goes down to the strange choice of actor that could have so much more to give with a different selection. This will become forgettable by the end of the movie.

Final Thoughts – One Way is a largely forgettable thriller.
