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

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

  • Santino Lamb
    Visually stunning but lacked a compelling storyline. The movie was more style than substance.
