Concept: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Story: 4/4 (Great)
Characters: 4/4 (Great)
Dialog: 4/4 (Great)
Pacing: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Cinematography: 4/4 (Great). Yes, it's all handheld (which I usually hate), but it's never distracting and often striking.
Special effects/design: 3/4 (Good)
Acting: 4/4 (Great)
Music: 3/4 (Good). There's almost none, which is good.
Subjective Rating: 7/10 (Good, 3/4). Hardly fun to watch, but very good. There's none of the unpleasantness I expect from a movie that's basically two hours of Angry People Being Angry.
Objective Rating (Average): 3.3/4 (Very good)
