I love this movie so much
I'll tell you why so serious
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
