It is fair to say it was very well thought out and very well put together. The veteran actors gave a really natural performance and it did not feel forced at all. There was enough element of surprise and a great twist at the end.All I can say is it is a great film to watch at night with a bowl of popcorn. It will be different to what you expect, but actually even better! I would recommend this film.
