Reviews

Ensofter Overrated and overhyped
Borgarkeri A bit overrated, but still an amazing film
Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
