    Rating: 4.5

  • Ariella May
    Way too long and dragged out. It had potential, but it lost me halfway through.
    Rating: 2

  • Luna Wall
    A fun, light-hearted movie that's perfect for a weekend watch. Not too deep, but enjoyable.
    Rating: 3.5

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

    The perfect blend of action, humor, and heart. One of the best movies I've seen in years.
