I love YouTube so much. Say what you want about the content people usually watch on there but it’s such a good tool to find old forgotten media like this.
About this: Not much to say.. the cast is pretty stacked and I found it watchable, it’s not great but not really offensively bad neither. Not exactly immersed but I think the camerawork was surprisingly good and the pacing wasn’t awful.
