User Reviews

Genius!

It's been a long time since I've given 10/10 to a full-lenght feature (gave one to Capernaum as well) and I only have like a dozen of 10/10 rated movies here on IMDB from 1000+ rated titles. This was so deserving! It's brilliant.. it will leave you puzzled and elated how good it is
