Reviews:

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

  • Brendan McCann
    Great concept, poorly executed. There were too many plot holes, and the ending felt rushed.
    Rating: 2.5

    An overhyped movie that failed to deliver. I didn’t connect with the characters or the plot.
