  • Kelvin Wiley
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.

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

  • Davina Powers
    The soundtrack was the highlight of the film. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie fell flat.
