I love this movie so much
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
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.
