PERSONAL ASSESSMENT
I must comment on the shortcomings of this movie I don’t like the idea of costumes, they are poorly used..Also, there was Poor graphics(throughout the movie) and poor sound and visual quality. The viewers would hear the background noise. The camera movement at the beginning was poor.
Some of the scene are so not realistic, the actor recited it like a poem.
