Matthew Muszalski is the reason this lands

There is something pretty interesting about how Matthew Muszalski fits into Plan C (2026). The small reactions do a lot of the heavy lifting. There is a nice lived-in quality to it, nothing too forced. I bought the character pretty quickly, which is not always easy in this kind of film. A couple of tiny timing choices really stuck with me. It is the kind of performance that quietly makes the movie sturdier. Not the whole movie, obviously, but it helps a lot.
