    I read the write up and felt that it would be a good movie. The movie dragged on and did not have a very good plot. It did not end well either. I was not impressed nor do I recommend this movie to watch. I watched it with a friend and we both had the same feelings. I feel that it could have had more excitement. It was dry and slow.
