I went into this knowing nothing more than it was set during WWII, starred Chloe Grace Moretz, and had gotten solid reviews. After finishing it....I'm at a loss for how it got ANY good reviews. This was not great and felt like a mish-mash of way too many different visions/stories/genres. If you're planning on watching, here come spoilers. If you plan on avoiding this (which you should), this is the crazy ride you'll go on: SPOILERS START HERE

The first 30-40 minutes are basically a one-hander with only Moretz on screen in an isolated environment of a WWII plane's gunner turrent. It felt like it could be a copy of Locke, but then a gremlin (yes, an actual gremlin) shows up and makes her life hell. During this time there's also a literal mystery box on the plane that you're trying to figure out what is in it. Oh, and then there's a Japanese scout plane coming in and out of the clouds that may or may not find them. Moretz shoots the plane down, the gremlin starts taking the plane apart, and the mystery box is a drugged to sleep baby. Then it gets even more bonkers. Moretz crawls on the outside of the plane to get her baby box, they all take on a fleet of enemy planes, the gremlin kills most of the crew, then they crash land. Before credits roll there's some unearned romantic melodrama, a fist fight with the gremlin, and an explosion for good measure. Sigh....this was just bad.
