"Character: Very good Quality of Writing: Very good Cinematic Quality: Very good... I found the first 25-30 pages pretty engrossing. I liked the intercutting as we're introduced to the two primary characters and there was a sense of mystery as we knew they would come together at some point... Loved the voice over of the instructor and how it all meshed together. It all just pulled me in... Ultimately I think there's a good story here and a lot to admire about it. The set-ups and reveals worked fairly well and the characters were interesting."

"You have an intriguing concept. The logline caught my attention... I like the opening sequence... I do really like Patrick’s confessionals. Very nice scenes... The heist. It’s a nice set up. The glitz and glamour of the show, the tension of entering in the first phase of the plan. It’s good. Flows nicely... OVERALL: You have a good story here with some great potential."

"...the action sequences are good, well written, characters are solid... a good read."
