A very engaging and…
A very engaging and realistic set-up. The character and strength of presence of Bellucci is a great hook all by itself. I'm not sure that the convoy's progress into the small English community isn't a bit too long drawn out. Perhaps the dialogue on the vehicle could be dialled back a bit to allow them to arrive at their destination a little earlier to see at least brief contact with a local or two. That would definitely add a dash of colour!
