This was just okay. Strong start and it picked up a bit towards the end but a lot of it was confusing and I feel I slogged through a bit. I didn't really care for most of the characters other than Wash himself. The big emotional moments didn't really hit as hard as they should and neither did the tense moments. Everything was all a bit meh.
