Athena B @GoDolphins 2d But like can I get my money back tho? The gf picked this one. Might break up with her for realz. I don’t leave review but damn want my time back yo See more Bob S @Golfer90pro 5d What was this? Who directed it? How does this stuff get made? Questions we will never know. Need my time back. This is why I miss cable. Could turn the Channel back then and now you commit to watching something and have to log out and into another app. Idk what this was. Skip it and turn off devices or go back to Netflix See more Missy M Nov 20 Namaka is such an intriguing and captivating film. I loved how the ending pulled everything together and made me want to rewatch the beginning with a new perspective. Amazing job! See more Rob K Nov 12 A fun tropical thriller with a fantasy twist. Great performances, especially Jamie Kennedy as Guy Torino, Jason Markoff as Alex and Ash Tsai as Namaka. Beautifully shot. Very unique, original independent film. Very refreshing to see something so totally different from the norm, in a good way. I want to watch it again, now that I know the twist. (No spoilers!) See more T C Oct 10 A hypnotic, slow-building thriller that trades jump scares for mythic tension. Stick with it — the payoff is worth the undertow. See more Read all reviews
