What works
Some visuals in this film are very captivating, especially the cinematography which is excellent. The soundtrack provided the right mood for some scenes. The actors tried to do justice to their roles, but the weak narrative undermined their efforts.
What does not

Bottom line
Despite a promising premise, the film ultimately disappoints due to weak storytelling and direction. Even though the production budget was high, it was not reflected on screen. There was not much discussion about this film on social media.
