Viewing Notes

This was one of my viewing choices on my flight to Japan. Was pretty happy to have this offered b/c it’s a good flick! And an ideal film to kill time on a long, long flight. Not much substance here but it’s done well and kept me invested. Helps that I was truly a captivated audience but I’d watch this again.
