Viewing Notes

I liked it well enough. The narrative structure is deflating though, since you more or less know the outcome of most of the people involved. That takes the suspense out of it. I get why, but those things were pretty easily guessed early on as well so not sure what was gained by that.

Bullock is great. I’ve got to imagine that the experience was at least somewhat traumatic for the child actors though!
