Reviews:

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

  • Bodhi Wilson
    The soundtrack was the highlight of the film. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie fell flat.
    Rating: 2.5

  • Joyce Caldwell
    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.
    Rating: 1.5

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

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