    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.

    Loved every minute of it! The dialogue was witty, and the chemistry between the actors was fantastic.

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

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