I give this movie 3 stars only. The story (concept) was intriguing, but The writing was muddled, and dialogue often made no sense. The casting and acting were spot on but The directing and editing were strangely bad. I mean in the shot to shot, the cutting, the way the scenes followed each other. Logic and clarity went out the window.

I have only one rule when I am being entertained. (Incorporating style always,) do I BELIEVE what I'm watching? Throughout this movie, I kept being pulled up short. The creature's costume, why no attempt to integrate the face with scales? oh no, mustn't completely hide the actor's handsome American features. Our heroine, was she to be pitied? No, she had friends and sympathy all around. Not downtrodden. These cleaning ladies, since when were cleaning ladies in public spaces chatted up by absolutely everybody as "equals" even in the toilet? I could go on, and on, and on, but cannot be bothered. This was an ego trip by one person, the movie maker. I comment that people are afraid to come out and criticise for fear of sounding ignorant. I forecast that it will do no business at the box offce.
