Good cast, fun game idea, terrific game sequences, cool mystery.....human story that lags behind. This could have been a great drama if the human story was as strong as the gameplay.
This starts off strong with a mystery and dynamic game play and strong conflict between the leading characters. Then the motives and story for the humans gets muddled and isn’t as interesting as the game. And then it gets worse when the editing jumbles up time periods in an attempt to make more plot and give depth to the story.
It’s a missed opportunity if only someone could make the second half as strong as the first. And let’s not even start on that ending....
Sigh.
