Reviews

[Marlana · Rating 3 out of 5]

I felt like in this installation of the CyberSkunk Files Naftali lost some of the spark and wonder that made the CyberSkunk Files so amazing. Some of the elements and plot points seem far fetched as if things don't work out just for the sake of them not working and when they do work out it seems unbelievable. Only three stars this time around I'm afraid.
