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

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

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

  • Darwin Merritt
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.

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