- Daniel CrandallApril 2, 2026A lot of this movie was good, but then there are too many things left unexplained and too much gratuitous bloody violence. So much potential for the confused emotion angle to be explored, but the “plot“ took over making the movie predictable instead of interesting. Great cast, too many good actors wasted on a movie that needed more time baking.
