“Unrelenting and human. This film doesn’t chase trends — it carves its own lane with heart and grit.”
“It’s rare to see a story this economical yet emotionally expansive. A quiet storm of a screenplay.”
“This is the kind of film that reminds you why producing indies matters. Vision, integrity, and something to say.”
“There’s a pulse to this performance-driven story. Raw, exposed, and honest. I’d audition for this world anytime.”
“A visual and emotional tightrope — and it never falls off. Confident filmmaking with soul.”
“Dialogue that feels lived-in. It doesn’t shout — it breathes. The writing feels like eavesdropping on real lives.”
“Impossibly polished for the budget. You can see the producing team hustled hard to make every frame count.”

Stayed so true to the source material but still had its own must-see moments. A beautiful revival.
Overlong and bogged down in dark photography and art direction, this live action remake doesn’t come close to the magic that was the animated original.
My daughter and I absolutely loved this movie! The actors they selected were spot on compared to their animated version! A must see!!!!! Bravo!!!
im not a big fan of live action remakes, but this was solid!
