Even by the time the movie reaches its big, eyebrow-raising curve, passions have been running too low for anyone to put up much of a fuss. At times, water feels thicker than Blood Lines. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews Jun 28

...a woefully lackluster piece of work that contains little of the charm present in Maurice’s debut, 2022’s Rosie. Go to Full Review Andrew Parker The Gate Jun 27

5/10
