      Audience Member [color=black]The movie was not at all what I was expecting. Acting wise it was great. Story-wise, meh. Horror/ Suspense-wise. . . not at all. Totally misleading movie jacket and 100% wrong genre. Drama. It is a drama with no horror and a slow moving, fairly predictible story. Watch it for the great acting or leave it on the shelf.[/color] Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I found the acting to be very insincere and amateurish. They all seemed so much like they were "acting". It's not a bad story, but not very engrossing because it all seemed so fake. The direction is amateurly done as well. Let's hope the film ends up like it's title. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
