Excellent performances from all of the young leads and a truly daring ending make this a must see.

Bad sci-fi flicks suffer from gaping plot holes or scientific impossibilities that anyone who paid attention to 4th grade science could figure out. This film doesn't suffer from such ailments. The writer and director painted a bel [...]
