Mjeteconer Just perfect...
ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
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.
