RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
