Reviews:

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

  • Axl Cuevas
    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.
    Rating: 1.5

  • Octavia Sosa
    A solid, enjoyable film. The performances were good, though it didn't really break new ground.
    Rating: 3.5

  • Eleanor Trujillo
    Great concept, poorly executed. There were too many plot holes, and the ending felt rushed.
