Bit weird. Not really sure what it was that didn't work for me in this one. The whole story felt flat. I didn't believe the characters. The romance between Kyle and Lilly was non-existent, except for what Kyle told us. I didn't really understand the plot. And I get that it's supposed to be a mystery, but I just felt in the dark the whole time, even as revelations were being made. They didn't really build up to anything. And a few parts were quite confusing.
Some people said they didn't like the interjections, but I kind of did! I liked the idea of it, but I didn't think it lived up to its potential. Possibly it was too short? Things happened and I wasn't really sure how they happened. We didn't really hear much emotion. Kyle didn't seem too bothered about the fate of his best friend, or at least, didn't spend much time thinking about it.
In the end, interesting idea, but not for me.

Why was Danny explaining things to them when everybody else seemed robotic? Who actually were the beings behind the upgrade, and why were they bothering to do it?Some people said they didn't like the interjections, but I kind of did!
