    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.

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

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

    An absolute masterpiece! The plot twists kept me on the edge of my seat, and the performances were top-notch.
