Greenes Please don't spend money on this.
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.
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
