Reviews:

  • Luna Wall
    A visual spectacle with an epic storyline. The special effects were mind-blowing.
    Rating: 4.5

  • Silas Butler
    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.
    Rating: 2

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

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

  • Lilith Hester
    A gripping story with strong performances. The ending was a bit predictable, but overall a great watch.
