It was good....
28 October 2017 | by wildblueyonder – See all my reviews

though I don't see the rave reviews for it.

Do generally like Judd Hirsch but kinda felt him unbelievable in the character, in fact none of the acting particualry stood out.

Decent plot, decent premise, decent pace... nothing spectacular but comparatively a solid effort.
