Pacing Verdict
The screenplay maintains a relentless, anxiety-inducing momentum that perfectly mirrors its high-stakes financial and personal tensions. The dialogue is sharp and propulsive, scene transitions are often harsh and jarring, effectively building a sense of inescapable pressure. The only minor rhythm issues are a slight drag in the mid-section as Luke's resentment simmers, but the narrative drive from intimate romance to brutal professional and personal warfare is expertly managed and never loses its grip.
