- Quotes
Jim Dunlop: Some people, they are the real people. Like in a movie, they're the ones you're watching, they're the ones making moves. And the other people, they're just there filling the space. And you take'em for granted. You think, they're easy. Take a penny, leave a penny. That's you, Eileen.

Great Setup, But Incomplete
This movie had all the makings of a great film. Act 1 provided a satisfying introduction to our main cast and let us explore the intricacies of their personalities. It seamlessly eased into Act 2 with the twist that was greatly hinted at in both the trailer and the synopsis. Then once we get to the height of the climax the film ends. We get no Act 3 and no resolution to what went on in the whole film. Every single plot point was left open with too much room left to interpretation. I honestly got hooked onto these characters and invested in their lives and stories and from Act 1 to Act 2 I felt like the film had an average score of a 7 that turned into an 8, but when everything ended so suddenly that score in my head dropped to where it is now. This film really should have had another hour to explore the consequences of the character's actions whether they were allowed to lead their same lives or not. As for now, we as the audience will never know and that doesn't jive with this viewer.
To sum up my thoughts the movie was the start of something great. But since it cut off so suddenly I'm left to wonder what the point even was.
