The characters of Mia and Jennie were also too similar and I was often confused about which one I was following. There was some action, and it was definitely exciting, but these scenes were few and far between. I felt like I needed a to make a list of all the character and their connections to keep up with everyone, and that prevented the story from flowing coherently. I definitely don't recommend Stranger and give it the rating of two out of five stars.
