Reviews:

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

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

  • Silas Butler
    A fun, light-hearted movie that's perfect for a weekend watch. Not too deep, but enjoyable.
