This film is complex enough, it has enough talented actors, that it rewards careful, multiple exposures.
The story becomes less of a distraction and I concentrate more on the pure story telling, which I find excellent: believable in the interesting world the writers created.

With this summer such a bust for films, I'm glad to report this one is definitely worth a second or third glance.
