Reviews:

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

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

  • Yaretzi Quintana
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.
    Rating: 2.5

  • Apollo Floyd
    Way too long and dragged out. It had potential, but it lost me halfway through.
