Levels

For Sci-Fi fans, you may watch It... for regular folks, I'd say skip It.

I did like this movie a bit, but a lot of scenes don't have Impact as It should have been (could have been elevated by editing or camera movements)

The movie pacing In this one is just slow and boring sometimes...

While some fighting scenes I did like (It wasnt very over the top)... Some dialogue Is well crafted.

The plot Is a mess and full of plot holes... It starts to lose any sense at the end.

While this movie budget was small, the CGI mostly did It's job... but It's still 'modern' world.

This movie is like a Matrix but made by Indie and with less Impact.

Welcome to the future, where everything is computerized but Siri still sounds like a computer from the 80's. I almost turned off the movie solely based on that annoying Siri voice.

"Levels" is the brainchild of Adam Stern and I think would do fairly good as a book, but here the casting is just horrible, it seems like they just took the first two actors that were available and the pacing of the movie is too slow and gets really boring at parts. The actors are not horrible, but here their performance is flat, and their chemistry is non-existent.

Adam Stern's got some hurdles to overcome before he can deliver a real blockbuster. For now, it's a niche indie film, likely drawing in Cara Gee fans from The Expanse, but unlikely to reach a broader audience.

Watch if you are a hardcore indie/sci-fi fan, I don't think I would recommend this otherwise it's just a dull watch. Exact score: 44 / 100.

It's a complete disappointment. The first thing I criticize is the music. The music of the movie is terrible. A movie soundtrack is definitely very important. The music that plays in this movie is classical. But the movie is science fiction. The other important thing is the plot. The script may be good, but the plot is very important. Jumping from topic to topic will take the viewer away from the movie. Also the actors. The actress definitely plays so badly that I would never want to see her again. Also the actor is not very good. Science fiction has been tried, but this is only in communication networks. In other words, when technology advances, it advances in the entire universe. For example, the fact that cars are the same, but almost all communication tools are made with eyes is a complete fiasco. I think no expense was spared for this movie. Because all the scenes were generally shot in the same place.

In short, it is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

Joe (Peter Mooney) seems to be jumping from world to world. He encounters Ash (Cara Gee), Hunter (Aaron Abrams), Oliver (David Hewlett), and a gun. The first thirty minutes are a confusing bore. Then comes the long info dump. It's not a good way to start and connect with these characters. For this sci-fi indie, the writing is the problem. There is no advantage to leaving the reveal late in the process. It needs to explain this world sooner. In the end, it doesn't sound wild enough. The acting is pretty good for a lower budget sci-fi. The special effects are fine. The movie probably lost me in the first 30 minutes.

The actors except for a few exceptions are solid, sadly one of them is the lead.

It started off fine, a bit of mystery, until about 20% in where they dump all the info about what is really happening.

The writer definitely does not read any Scifi, because out of all the possibilities this has got to be the lamest story lines I could imagine, as soon as I realised there is nothing clever the movie really went down hill.

Its basically just sims, crossed with the Matrix with a bit of action on top. All comes off as a very poor rip of some aspects of the Matrix without any of its depth. We even have a bit of "bullet time" special effects.

They ignored the "show dont tell" which would have made the movie better. And exactly why you should care about a game of sims as some sort of crime against humanity is just ridiculous.
