Reviews

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Paynbob 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.
