As I’ve already stated your action lines ruin the rest of the script, it doesn’t even matter that they’re written well or not they are far too long. Even if someone gets past the first page they will drop the script after the first ten pages, again I’m sorry but it’s the truth here.
Now everything else here is totally fine. Which is bloody great cause the character / dialogue and overall story
Again not trying to tell you need to rewrite the...
This is a very promising backbone to a great script. At the moment, while good, it's not perfect. The biggest thing I recommend on developing is Jamie and Kaden's relationship, and adding a bit more meat to the story to add to the weight of the ending reveal. But overall, I enjoyed this script, I look forward to what comes next :)
