Discontinued

This was a welcome entry to the catalogue of "explore a philosophical issue by introducing a scenario, and then have the main character walk around getting different people's perspectives" indie films. The worst parts were the attempts at comedy, to be frank, but the movie did eventually abandon the silliness.

Most of the acting was very amateur, which was why a lot of the comedy felt so stiff. Picardo, Hutchinson, and Fishburne carried the show, and this Bonini guy was pretty good too (the character isn't his fault).

For a very limited movie I was impressed. It held my interest and even stimulated my brain. Worth a watch.

First things first, this is not a comedy. This is a movie that shines a light on the fact that the world as we know it, and it's societal and cultural norms and expectations aren't built for everyone. This is a character study of one young woman who learns more about what it means to be alive when faced with the end of days.

It is on the slower side and it's far from perfect, but it asks interesting questions. We're supposed to be social animals right? So why do so many of us thrive in solitude? Why do widely accepted societal norms cause anxiety and depress certain people, when these norms exist to give structure to what it means to be part of a society in the first place? Watch it with an open mind.

It's a decent idea, but this movie is extremely slow and not thought provoking at all. It had a lot of potential. The acting and music selection was not great, cinematography is fine, but in terms of storyline? Abysmal. Throughout the entire movie, I felt as if I was watching a movie produced by a highschool movie production team as an assignment. The realism felt completely off and is not at all how you would expect humans would respond, in fact I think the majority would chose to stay. Each to their own, I appreciate everyone has their own opinion, but it takes a lot for me to skip through a movie. I wanted it to get better, but 3/10 I stand by what I said, the movie is less thought provoking than these reviews.

Some have called it "The 4th Turning," others call it "The Great Reset;" regardless of what it's called, it an Industrial Revolution of sorts (again). So many things go into this new Industrial whirlwind that promises to make the previous industrial revolutions primitive and obsolete.

One of the features of this future for humanity is Virtual Reality while another is Transhumanism. This movie explores this perceived reality, from a point of view similar to that of ants. Ants represent a collective society; And, this new industry proposes that we are as well, it we are to adapt and survive this all.

I just added this editorial.

This flick is actually very complicated with respect to the multiple layers and themes (imagined & addressed) - related to our very future, that which is unraveling every day...

The premise is somewhat intriguing and this is probably the only good thing i can write about this. Obviously it's low budget but the problem is with the execution of their idea and not the acting or the money.

In reality the people's reaction would be much more erratic. There would be chaos and all types of violent behavior.

The ending suggests that it doesn't matter what type of person you are and how you lived your life. Sadly, this anti-moral message is quite popular nowadays. I wonder why.

Summary: despite all these it's worth a watch just don't expect too much. Also, this is not a comedy.
