"Curse of Throna" was a complete waste of time and money. The storyline was confusing and lacked any real depth, with no clear explanation of the fantastical elements introduced. The characters were one-dimensional and uninteresting, and I found myself not caring about their fates. The special effects were poorly executed, with cheap-looking CGI that took away from the immersion of the film. The movie also dragged on unnecessarily, without any clear direction or purpose. I would strongly advise against watching "Curse of Throna" as it offers very little entertainment value.
