  • Richard Velez
    Way too long and dragged out. It had potential, but it lost me halfway through.

  • Ariella May
    A fun, light-hearted movie that's perfect for a weekend watch. Not too deep, but enjoyable.

    The soundtrack was the highlight of the film. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie fell flat.

    An emotional rollercoaster. The soundtrack was beautiful and really added to the experience.
    Rating: 4.5

  • Frances Nash
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.
