Curious about Counterattack. Would you call it a relaxed evening pick or something to save for the right mood?

Ronan, that is what I like about a shortlist. It makes me stop endlessly browsing and actually choose.

Counterattack is one I am weighing up. Could someone add a spoiler-free note about the opening? That is usually what helps me choose.

Grainne, that is a good way of choosing. I tend to match the pick to the evening as well.

For anyone considering Counterattack: Keeping this on the list for a quieter evening rather than trying to squeeze it in.
