Where to Watch Steve
- Kevin WardMarch 1, 2026I think this stretched believability a bit packing all of these issues into a single day. Would have been a perfect Leonie Benesch role if she hadn’t already done the one stressed out teacher role. But I think the complexity of issues faced is really well represented. I actually like the unique camera moves. What can I say, though? I’m a sucker for upside down shots. Compressing this all into a day certainly ramps up the tension, but I think it might have been more effective to stretch the time frame to over the course of a school year.
