It got a great premise and more than that a great visual making it a wonderful watch for me at least. I loved it.

      Raam Tarat Future Movies UK The film is definitely innovative, but not taut enough to be a thriller, nor engaging enough to work as a drama. The sum of all its' parts producing a disappointingly average outcome. Rated: 2/5 Oct 30, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews
