The Companion Audience Reviews

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
