Welcome to the Show - Review

"This is certainly different from any other offering so far seen on Inkitt. It’s almost surreal in places. The author has chosen to write this story as a screen play. That is perhaps a mistake – it would work much better as a story and I understand that is the intention at some point. It is labelled as ‘Humour and Thriller’: I’m not certain that either of these categories quite fit. There’s quite a lot of slapstick in there however– practically every ‘scene’ contains a brawl and there is a ‘message’ in there at the end. The main protagonist is not a particularly likeable character, which I believe is the whole point of the piece because by the end he does learn his lesson. The author seems to have had a lot of fun constructing this screenplay and I found it to be a creditable effort but it does need a lot of work to make it fit for pitching to anyone, if that is the purpose. The ending is a bit obscure and doesn’t exactly fit with the rest of the piece although it does leave the way open for a sequel. Best to leave this out and just write the sequel if that is the intention. Overall the story is quite a lot of fun - it just needs to be worked on to make the plot come together better These thoughts are further expanded in the comments section to avoid cluttering the review box up."
