Looks good, but going to wait for streaming.

I think this is something both the wife and I would enjoy. Glad you bumped this to the top.

Saw this today. Good movie with an original story. Haven’t enjoyed a movie this much in a long time.

I thought this was just okay. I feel like most movies today are way too long, but with this one the emotional connection between Fraser's character and the others just seemed to lack enough development to be meaningful. And I think that's just because there wasn't enough screen time to make it impactful.
