[edit]GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- This is me but in the Plot section, "transport" does not seem to be the right word. No need for it to be changed, just throwing it out there. In the Production section, "In 1990" add a comma after "1990".

- B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
- In the Production section, I believe the link to "Francis Bacon" needs to be corrected. If not, that's my bad there. Same section, it would be best if "San Francisco" is linked once, per here. In the release section, it would be best if "National Association for the Advancement of Colored People" was followed by ---> (NAACP), I mean, I know what it means, but how 'bout the reader. In the release section, the link to "Ken Page" needs to be fixed. In the Critical analysis section, there's no need for "Rotten Tomatoes" and "Metacritic" to be italicized, since their websites and per here.
