    A solid, enjoyable film. The performances were good, though it didn't really break new ground.
    Rating: 3.5

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

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

  • Chandler Koch
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.
