Hi. I have found an agent but they want me to have a formal critique of my work. Is this legit? They're sending me a contract with a referral. Theyre called the wl screenplay agency. http://wlscreenplayagency.com/Am i being ripped off? |

The way I understand it is as long as they don't ask for money up front, it's a good start. After that, your guess is better than mine. |

They're very well known around here and other writing websites. If you give me $50, I'll come to your house and kick you in the balls. It'd be about the same result as allowing them to rep you, only cheaper. |

Not trying to belittle your work, but the Screenplay Agency has yet to find a script that it didn't like. People have purposely submitted bad scripts to them, trying to get a rejection letter.
No one is rejected.
