Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.
