    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.

    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.

    An overhyped movie that failed to deliver. I didn’t connect with the characters or the plot.
