Solid movie, kept me interested but not a ton of plot. I liked the characters, I liked the setting, I liked the atmosphere. Just left me wanting for a bit more of a story to stir together all those fine ingredients. Enjoyed my watch but wouldn’t rave about this one. 3/5

If you just want to drink your beer and watch your movie in peace then maybe skip this one.
