Audience Member Impact of exciting topic - told from (several, but not all of) the horses’ mouths - lessened by bland talking head/spastic A.D.D. “structure”. End credits hint at a (potentially) more interesting version. #nitrosMovieChallenge Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/22 Full Review Read all reviews
