In the midst of his hired kill, a Hitman is visited by his drug abused Uncle and learns the essence of life through his six-year-old daughter.
A logline should not be about "life lessons learned" -- that's a subjective goal arising from an internal need.? A logline should focus on the external goal, what the main character needs to accomplish as a result of the inciting incident.So, as a result of being visited by his uncle -- the incitingRead more
A logline should not be about “life lessons learned” — that’s a subjective goal arising from an internal need.? A logline should focus on the external goal, what the main character needs to accomplish as a result of the inciting incident.
So, as a result of being visited by his uncle — the inciting incident — what must the hitman do?? What become his objective goal? Who opposes him? What are the urgent stakes?

I like the concept of simulations of earth history.
Have you considered using ye’ ol’ sci-fi gimmick of parallel space-time dimensions? The simulations are being run in parallel space-time dimensions. In fact, the whole history of the earth as we know about it is one of the simulations being run in parallel space-time, one of numerous galactic virtual machines, all part of a grand experiment in evolution from the same base point event, the same zero-moment when life commenced.
The MC’s goal would amount to a desperate quest for a simulation where the experiment leads to a hopeful outcome for life on earth in general, homo sapiens specifically. The ticking clock, of course, is that our simulation is running out of time; we’re on the verge of hurling ourselves — and all life in our simulation — off the cliff into extinction.

As FFF said. The logline seems to be more about the "B" story -- the love story -- and rather vague on what constitutes the "A" story. A logline should focus on the "A" story. That is, it should 1] identify a main character, 2] describe that character's specific objective goal, 3] who/what opposes tRead more

That is, it should 1] identify a main character, 2] describe that character’s specific objective goal, 3] who/what opposes the main character and 4] what’s at stake.
The objective goal should be framed as something the main character is proactively seeking to accomplish. As it is “They are driven…” seems passive and reactive — circumstances are in the drivers seat of the plot rather than the main characters.
