I liked the movie quite a lot but your review is absolutely fair. I will say that David Dastmalchian is fantastic in this role. His micro expressions, from the first quick flicker of anxiety to the naked hunger and panic he shows for just a second when the doctor is refusing to contact Mr. Wiggles a second time before he regains composure, are masterful. I think he proved as an actor that he can carry a movie successfully and I hope he is offered more opportunities to be the leading man.

The skill with which you slotted this mediocre movie between attribute guard rails is part of what makes all your movie reviews interesting, even if I would not choose to see the movie itself .

You deserve a much wider audience.
