Reviews

_Mad Fate_ is a riveting watch because the performances are great and the premise is vastly different than what you’re probably used to seeing in thrillers touching on similar concepts. The ending is a little bizarre as it takes a severe plunge into illogical territory — not to mention the use of CGI (all of the animals are computer generated) being lackluster at best. For the most part, though, _Mad Fate_ is incredibly original and masterfully dances around whether or not our fates are actually chiseled in stone. **Full review:** https://bit.ly/madfate
