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

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

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