I’m going to have to be perfectly honest here, guys. I totally nodded off at least twice during In the Grey. I wasn’t really prepared for that, as it wasn’t like I was feeling profoundly tired when I entered the theater. Although I suppose I was a little restless the night before. Anyway, it started off as a fairly promising caper, even if I didn’t fully understand everyone’s motivations. So now I would appreciate it if somebody could give me a synopsis of the middle and the very end. In the meantime, I remain very much in the grey myself!
