Reviews:

  • Everest Cannon
    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.
    Rating: 3.5

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

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

    An emotional rollercoaster. The soundtrack was beautiful and really added to the experience.

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