Gregory S Well, for all the great things this movie does, it just falls flat. The cinematography, acting, effects are all great. The story itself is heartbreaking, but one that should be told. But, the script and how things were put together just didn’t work. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/25 Full Review Anu S Just kept seeing the shirt reels and people were praising so watched this movie. However, I didn’t like this movie at all. With the story they could have done so much better. It was so poorly written and directed. The ending itself was so bad. The guy was never convicted for what he did. He lived a long life and died by falling a cliff. So disappointed Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/21/25 Full Review Liz J Poor pacing, weak storytelling, and a cast of characters that play little to no role towards the plot. I’m so disappointed by this film. The trailer made it seem like this was a story of a girl who lost her life, and her father’s journey to avenge his daughter and solve her crime. The trailer also showed a psychic girl who I thought would play a significant role in solving the crime… [SPOILERS AHEAD] Instead, we got a bunch of characters who did absolutely nothing to further the plot, a disco party-photoshoot in the afterlife (literally…), and somehow, the investigation to find the murderer got little to no attention!! I thought the investigation and avenging the murder victim was going to be the main point of the film… instead we got an 8 year time skip and no resolution. The psychic from the trailer played zero part in the story (so why was she even there??) And in a film that wants to be taken so seriously, the grandmother was needless and inappropriate comedy relief!! This had the most unsatisfying ending with absolutely no resolution regarding the murderer. This movie is only 2 hours long because of the excessive CGI scenes. I’m sure the book must have been better somehow, but as a film it fell flat… Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/01/25 Full Review Vinicius S Filme horrivel, só não dou 0 estrelas porquê não tem como, CGI péssimo, história bizarra de ruim, parece que o filme tenta passar pano para o antagonista o tempo todo, e de certa forma ele ainda tem um final bom, comparado com o fim dos personagens que ele deu para alguns personagens da história, perdi 2 horas da minha vida com esse filme. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review Michelle-ann C Most frustrating movie ever to sit and watch.. waste of time and money. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Dheena A A terribly frustrating watch. The movie tried to be too symbolic constantly and missed. Could’ve handled the plot so much better. One of the worst movies ever. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/23/25 Full Review Read all reviews
