The writer is incredibly effective at turning up the heat. - Hoof & Horn

There's a great deal of humor, personality and dramatic intrique that's conveyed through the characters' swift, sharp-witted exchanges with each other. - Fins

It's vital for a screenplay to establish its core concepts within the opening ten pages, and this certainly succeeds. - The Loss of Silence

This concept is familiar for audiences and strong enough to carry not only this pilot, but an entire series. - The Factory

There are several moments of humor throughout the script, specifically in the dialogue between characters. - Hoof & Horn
