Pretty much how I remember the movie. Still very well written. The world building is well done and I just really like the focus on personality traits and how we all are a bit divergent in that sense. There were some scenes towards the end that were so fast paced to the point where I didn't really feel the character's emotions or what was happening didn't seem as big as it should've been.
