    Picks up speed, fast
    This movie is the definition of great indie filmmaking. It's rare to find a film that comes together in the way this one does. Without giving away any spoilers, I will say that it is incredibly difficult to catch every little thing - even from the first 5 minutes in, important, subtle things are happening and you're not even aware of it. I watched with 100% concentration and was lucky to catch everything (I think), but I can see why someone would be very disappointed in this movie if they only gave 75% if their focus to the dialogue (as well as physical props, etc.). I can't recommend this movie enough to those that like a challenging drama. I had to take one star away because there were lines that were very hard to hear - even after rewinding a few times to hear them.
