The film's narrative is stuck in a time warp. While the writers' mindset is contemporary, the script attempts to transport us back to the late 1980s. Unfortunately, this endeavor falls short, lacking conviction and authenticity.

The script itself is not so weak, but it sorely needs a more nuanced dramaturgical approach and realistic art direction. Certain anachronisms, such as doctors' secretary playing Solitaire on a computer and Zuhal using a rollaboard suitcase, are jarring and unconvincing, even for the 1990s.

With more attention to period detail and a more thoughtful approach to storytelling, this film could have been more engaging and believable.
