I honestly, am not sure what to say about a lot of the script. There's plenty of good, there's some not so good, but honestly the good outweighs the bad by a whole lot. There's plenty of contrivances, but they're mostly outweighed by difficult-to-swallow story. But I think for me, the main appeal is the dialogue. Seriously the dialogue is pretty great. Each character naturally bounces off one another and hardly feels forced. There's plenty you ca...
Overall the story is sad to begin with. I love how this started with interweaving the stories, but I think the story fell through the cracks toward the end. A lot of things should be changed about what happens later in the story because some things were not believable to characters in the report for how they were built would never do. Otherwise, it was a fun read, nad hop this review helps. Best of luck!
