I honestly thought it was great. The entire cast was amazing and the kid who played Alex was mesmerizing to watch. The plot wasn't mind blowing but the pacing was really engaging and the end was fucking awesome. I saw it in a theater with maybe ten other people and they all yelled out multiple times, whatever that means.
