    Barely a movie at all

    This was an absolutely mindless and completely empty vessel of a movie, there was just the faintest sketch of a story with barely any action, and one could say that nothing ever really happened in this movie. I kept waiting for something to happen, I kept waiting for the story to develop and it eventually ended up being just this big blob of nothingness. If they had bothered to hire a good writer and use a decent script there might have been some content in this movie but it truly felt like it was written by a 14-year-old.

    Please do yourself a favor and do not watch this film there are so many better things you could be doing with your life.
