Reviews:

  • Rylan Garcia
    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.

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

  • Noa Ford
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.

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