...list of unconvincing reasons for slapping video down. The cost of such technology, they argue, would mean leagues in poorer countries wouldn't be able to use video, dividing soccer into haves and have-nots. They also claim that the time taken out to consult replays would destroy the rhythm of play and that video would not fix all errors. Those objections were initially sounded in other sports where video later proved quite efficient in preventing referee flubs...

One scene which occurs outside the interview room involves a conversation between two businessmen, which perfectly tunes Wallace’s prose to their bitten-off speech patterns. Test Subject #3 (Christopher Meloni) brings a bitterly funny tale to life when he launches into the colorful story of seeing a girl crying on the ground at Dayton...
