Reviews:

  • Bodhi Wilson
    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.
    Rating: 3.5

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

  • Briggs Perez
    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.

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