Skunkyrate Gripping story with well-crafted characters
LouHomey From my favorite movies..
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.
Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
