Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
