Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.
