Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
