They’re on a quest to uncover the secrets of this ancient mirror, and as they wander through the city, you feel the weight of history surrounding them. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the audience to soak in the atmosphere, which is a blend of mystery and discovery. The performances are solid, capturing youthful curiosity and camaraderie. The film leans heavily into its drama, and while it may not be flashy, the practical effects used for the ancient mirror add a touch of authenticity that’s pretty neat. It’s more about the journey than the destination, really.
