Third, I thought the overall pacing an ensemble work was outstanding. It's not about being 100% historically accurate, but recreating the tension Lorne would have been feeling that night. I think it accomplished that.

Can't say how much I was impressed with this film. I now wish I would have seen it in the theater, which would have made it even better.

But I say this with no hyperbole, this film should be nominated for a slew of Oscars, yet it clearly hasn't.

The ekad actor playing Lorne was great, as was the rest of the cast. I actually thought the Aykroyd guy was the best out of all of them. The guy who played Chase was fantastic.

I was actually most impressed with the cinematography and lighting and set and art design, and pacing and even the music. Overall, the direction was superb.

I think this actually may be the best movie I've seen this year. I will defiantly watch again soon.
