The relentless painful pursuit of greatness and perfection leads to a film that seemingly encapsulates the very essence of it. While the abusive harsh methods may be too much to some, the very fruit of it lies within the end of the film, albeit cut short to no concrete conclusion. Although, the climactic abrupt ending did serve justice towards Neiman and Fletcher.
The dancing between sincere and utmost torture between mentee and mentor is tastefully done which captivates audience through the psychological ride within the film. The screenplay and score further emphasises this leading to a treat that elevates the initial narrative of the film.
