I think the premise is solid, but the execution leaves a bit to be desired. It's a good movie for sure, but I was hoping for something a little bit More.
Didn’t finish it.
Couldn't get into it!
😱😱😱👹👹:skull_and_crossbones:️ it was horrifying
While the film itself isn't lacking, and is ultimately greater than the sum of its parts, it does feel like it is a certain sparsity in the actual story that I can only describe as being akin so being fed a snack when you are promised a full meal. Enjoyable and delicious? definitely. Satisfying? Not quite.
