    8/10

    A film that takes a bit to get going. But once it does it’s just good times. It definitely makes you wait but rewards you like good film should. A lot of movies blow their load at the beginning leaving you disappointed by the end these days. This film is simple. And it knows it. That simplicity is what makes it good. If it came out today? 7. For its audacity at storytelling with some modern tropes? An 8.
