Reviews:

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

  • Jackson Butler
    An intense thriller that kept me guessing until the very end. Definitely worth a watch.

  • Eleanor Trujillo
    Visually stunning but lacked a compelling storyline. The movie was more style than substance.

  • Emir McLean
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.

    Surprisingly good! I didn't expect much, but the twists and emotional depth really pulled me in.
