      Audience Member A lot of parallels can be drawn between it and Christianity as far as seeking a life purpose, improving one's self, the need for a savior and learning to depend on more mature Christians for mentorship. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member pretty boring through the first half or so. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Sigh.. weak plot.. scattered scenes.. Can use to kill time if you really have nothing to do!
