Reviews

Thehibikiew Not even bad in a good way
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
