This is How Movies Should Be Made
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
