This movie is funny and exciting! It is stylish and thrilling. It puts you on the edge of your seat! I could go on. But the main point is that all around it is really enjoyable. Open your mind in the beginning and you will not have trouble following this at all! Dominic Monaghan is amazing. I only wish he could have more screentime! Kisses!
