ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
