Crypto Shadows

Bad story, bad acting, bad writing - just plain bad. Too bad they didn't ask ANY real computer people how to make some semblance of a computer geek. Main character's "main" computer move was selecting the input for her computer monitor - yes, selecting Display Port was her number one computer move. Mysteries abound, none of them believable or solved. You'd think by the end of the story, you'd be on team "main character" - you would be wrong. At the end of the story I couldn't care less if anything was solved, if anyone lived or died, I was just begging for the movie to end. Proving how bad the writing is, the end of story pulls a Indian Jones (again, oh so not believable). So save your crypto shadows - there is zero reason to watch this dribble.

Frankly, I lost interest after 45 minutes of a girl talking meaninglessly to herself, and no less than about 2 million sighs. I think Cara deserves to become the first sigh-master!

I'd give this film no more than 2 stars, with an interesting title but a boring plot that seems to have no direction, other than chopping wood, sitting on rocks, and scrolling through meaningless code on computer screens. A character can only talk to herself for a finite amount of time before it becomes a distraction.

The most puzzling aspect of this film is how it earned a 5.8 IMDB rating. I watched with a friend who expressed similar comments.

Effects on the computer screen are OK. Acting from the sole actor is OK. It's just kinda pointless. The plot doesn't lead very far. The lead character bounces between staring at the screen in frustration and shuffling through the woods.

I got some help finishing this review. Crypto Shadows promised a thrilling dive into the world of cryptocurrency and espionage, but delivered nothing but disappointment. The storyline was convoluted, jumping from one poorly explained crypto heist to another without ever making sense of the stakes involved. The characters were as flat as day-old soda, lacking any depth or development to make us care about their fates. Even worse, the attempts at suspense fell flat with predictable plot twists that were more yawn-inducing than shocking. Save your time and money for a film that actually delivers on its promises.

Crypto Shadows captivated my attention from beginning to end. The slow dynamic build of story and character development took me on a dramatic and suspenseful journey that culminated in a thrilling climax and an unexpected resolution.

Mikayla Iverson's performance was outstanding. Her raw and emotional portrayal of Cara, a woman seeking solace on a secluded family ranch after a life-altering trauma, left me with a sense of both compassion and an understanding of the resilience of the human condition.

This film was beautifully shot and edited with inspirirational direction and sound design. I would highly recommend taking the time to indulge in this nail biting, dramatic cinematic experience. You won't be disappointed!

Anyone giving this a high rating is lying! Do NOT believe them and waste your time like I did! ZERO chance this is s 7 movie!

Basically a 1 person cast. Lame plot, lame 'action', ridiculous ending.

There was nothing in this movie that made any sense. Worst portrayal of some super hacker/high skill computer person ever. She's so smart but keeps getting 'hacked'. She's being chased, but no one ever tries to really get her. She's what, rich to afford her set-up on acres and acres including and underground bunker? No backstory whatsoever.

The main character is all over the place with her emotions, acting, work practices, everything. It's bad!

I've already told you how bad it is but I have to meet this 500 word requirement! Why does this exist?!? If you can't say what you think succinctly it's not worth saying it.

Anyway, you been warned.
