Daniel Kowal has good moments, though not fully even

Looking just at Daniel Kowal's work as Writer, there is a clear point of view in the performance. Even in crowded scenes, the performance keeps a clean line through the story. There is enough texture in the quieter beats to make the role feel lived in. What works best is the balance between restraint and clear emotional intention. It adds value without trying too hard to dominate the film. My reaction is mainly about this specific film, not a judgement on the performer overall.
