Wonderful character development!
The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
