Reviews:

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

  • Nico Hamilton
    The soundtrack was the highlight of the film. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie fell flat.
    Rating: 2.5

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

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

    Surprisingly good! I didn't expect much, but the twists and emotional depth really pulled me in.
