Reviews

Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
