With that summary title, I'll come up with what I didn't like first. Daisy (Sarah Wynter) was a serious mis-cast. She came across flat and amateurish. It was, literally, painful to watch (and I have watched this movie quite a number of times).
They also made a mistake moving the location from Vancouver to Montreal. The West Coast scenery was missing, making it hard to believe it was supposed to be in Washington State. I know you gotta go where the money takes you, but still. And, of course, since the real Waffle House was demolished in New Westminster, that set was gone anyway.
But there were also things that I liked. What happens when the team leader gets their lights? The movie was really the job interview for the new team leader, and only George passed it. I had also wondered - was it possible for a reaper's character to grow and mature? The series tantalized this question, with Daisy and Mason moving forward (especially in Season 2), but then also falling back repeatedly. In the movie, George grew. Which is also why she got the reaper promotion.
And besides, don't you want to know what happens when a reaper reconstitutes themselves from their ashes and discovers they are in orbit?
