THE VIDEO IS GREAT!!
I really enjoy watching the video! The acting, the plot, and the background noise are all on point. I was on the edge of my seat when the character with blocked ears finally passed him the hammer. Overall, the video was a lot of fun to watch, and if it were a series, I can see myself binge-watching it.
yes, the video was wonderful. It's very clear and so fun, I'm really like it.
