...It is one of the worst movies ever produced. Even Ashten's hotness is not visible in all this darkness and weirdness. Someone who constantly changes time backwards and forwards not controlling it and not knowing how to control it is mighty confusing! both for ashten and for the viewer.

Also the young boy who plays the same character in his youth is brilliant. ... Read review
