  • Lauryn Wilkins
    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.
    Rating: 1.5

  • Davina Powers
    Visually stunning but lacked a compelling storyline. The movie was more style than substance.
    Rating: 3

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