Did you people see the same film I saw?
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
