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

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

  • Kaisley Walsh
    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.

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