BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
