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

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

    A gripping story with strong performances. The ending was a bit predictable, but overall a great watch.

  • Yusuf Castro
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.

    Not my cup of tea. The storyline was predictable and the characters lacked depth.
