Reviews (1)
In that shot, there is such strange theatrics that simply didn't sit well with me, and the scenes that should sound quite intense and emotional seemed somewhat funny to me at times. However, the story itself is not bad at all, and there are moments that are still interesting, despite the overacting. Driving off in the car at the end is one of them.
