Don't try to make the film 'more interesting' by editing the scenes so they aren't in chronological order. It just detracts from the story and annoys viewers.

Usual im sceptical when i read these comments coz everyone thinks they're a film critic. good movie but yes it is wrapped up rather quickly and leaves a few questions unanswered.

A confusing structure hampers an otherwise good film, with excellent performances from Dawson, Reynolds and Speedman.
