Gray Matter

Honestly way better than I was expecting. I needed something decent/new to watch. This is what I needed!

I feel like the only thing missing was a little more substance.

The idea from the movie was better suited for a short tv series. More character development and more of everything lol

But I was thoroughly entertained. Had me on the edge of my seat at times despite being mostly predictable like any other movie. Great popcorn flick.

As compared to "Dark mirror" as some have mentioned...in my opinion that show can be over the top, even perverted. So, yeah. If you're into that kind of thing this movie will probably disappoint.

No profanity in this or nudity. Just your annoying smart mouthed know it all teenager.

I had to make this review long enough to post but I wanted give this one a thumbs up! Too many bad reviews.

The movie (more like an episode for a show that doesn't exist) is a relatively simple concept, and the film is too. There really isn't much I'll take away from this film that will stick.

Overall, it's a movie you can put on in the background or while making dinner. Besides some cgi blood and one head explosion it's just for kids. Very simple characters, plot is also standard kid with powers, harness them, mom/kid relationship (which drags really bad towards the end).

I liked the idea maybe as the pilot to a much more complex show (which honestly may have been why it was made because it's really low budget with lighting, settings and actors). Standard 5/10. Not awful not memorable really at all.

This movie (honestly feels like a short story with a cliff hanger ) has amazing potential to show what it was meant to if they created it as a series,, I originally started watching it in the hopes it was , or would be , I actually was surprised that it was just in the Movie premise. It could be a great story, if they carried through with it.

The acting I feel was good especially from the main girl ,, she carried it. Also,, again... They are overlooking the potential of a great story if they don't expand it, weather in a limited series at first ,, or ongoing,, I would definitely watch it . Hope they explore the possibilities and different directions they could create with it.

Sad that I have to leave a negative review but the movie is very basic, nothing unique and at times actually boring. There is no real introduction to the world they live in, no real clues. Eventually things pick up more speed and you are lead through a sequence of events that you've seen in some form or another in other movies many times over. Some of the dialogue and interactions feel forced, but I don't blame any of the actors it is really just a mediocre script.

I specifically gave it at least 5 stars solely due to Mia's amazing performance as a young actor, really bringing all the life to this movie. I look forward to seeing her in another film.

This isn't so bad as I was led to believe. Neither is it great. First quarter is too slow, and the movie does feel longer than it is, which is unfortunate. A little slow and repetitive in the "dream" sequences. For me it got better when Dillahunt showed up. I thought his scenes with Mia Isaac (who's fantastic and has a great career ahead of her) were more sparky and interesting. Script needed work and its a shame it didn't get it. This is a repetitive truffle made more watchable by talented actors. I found myself much more disappointed in the accompanying series, Project Greenlight. Was so clearly manipulated and set up for maximum "drama", but her support system was nonexistent. Found myself disappointed in Issa Rae.
