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

  • Milana Vaughn
    Great concept, poorly executed. There were too many plot holes, and the ending felt rushed.

  • Lilith Hester
    Way too long and dragged out. It had potential, but it lost me halfway through.

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