thiago s @Thiagostone Jul 3 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Yuri B @RyuBlack Apr 18 A surprisingly good film... Agnes Bruckner was great as Audrey... definitely better than anticipated. See more Jerod S 01/15/2023 Teenagers in the middle of the desert. Dead mommy and alcoholic dad make one girl's time intense.

The main problem here is a lack of climax in the plot, it seems to just meander through some pretty major happenings. Easy watching. See more Read all reviews
