My Take on the Movie
This was a movie that was not only a great mystery, but it also was filled with great characters that keep you connected from beginning to end. David was a character that kept me wondering. For quite some time I found myself trying to figure out his story and where he would go in the end. Would he be a hero or villain? The movie was action packed and reminded me of some of my favorite movies from the 80's and 90's that kept me on the edge of my seat and made me come back for more. I hope that this will not be the last we see David's character!
