  1. As I first started watching it, it reminded me of Firefly, only in an elevator instead of a space craft. But not so in the later scenes. In many respects, it was brutal. Not sure I like how it ended. OK, didn't care for how it ended.

    1. It's tragic the choices some people are forced to make. It is a very sad little film.
