- Nicholas FlorioNovember 30, 2025This movie was fantastic. It's really all about the actor's character development in this type of film that makes it great to watch. If they didn't have the type of actor that could bring out how interesting the people are, the storyline would never carry the movie. It's hard to explain but, it is worth the watch. I watched it 2 times in a row. Lol
