Reviews:

  • Cecilia Friedman
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.
    Rating: 1.5

  • Kaisley Walsh
    A touching and heartfelt movie. The performances felt genuine, and the story was beautiful.
    Rating: 4.5

  • Darwin Merritt
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.
    Rating: 2.5

  • Silas Butler
    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.
    Rating: 3.5

  • Emery McClure
    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.
