Dark State

This story brings to light many of the important issues that we were concerned about before Covid.

Now that vaccines are slowly gaining us some freedom, we should pick up where we left off.

Honour the departed by doing some good! ;)

Best comedy movie of the year, Number #1 Oscar magnet. The actors will probably win all the awards this year. Such good acting.

Highly recommend to watch this masterpiece of cinema. You will laugh and cry from laughing too much. Its such great comedy movie.

I can't understand why all the bad reviews on this movie. Sounds like a personal thing to me. I see the movie very realistic. It is a little soft, but it's a good start exposing Hollywood and exactly what is going on. Now I'm waiting for Part 2. Come on people, we're ready. Let's hear the whole truth! 😉

I was hoping for some camp value here because the comparisons to "The Room," plus the very notion of a kind of veiled QAnon-y nutjob conspiracy thriller, did sound pretty hilarious. But this is too endlessly talky in a pedestrian and repetitive way--no matter that what the characters are talking about (however vaguely) is ridiculous--to be much fun. To their credit, the actors hired are professionals. They try to get through this with as much dignity and naturalism as possible, even as they're stuck in the script's Grade Z approximation of Ayn Rand for the disinformation age. But the writing and direction are just hopeless.

Who actually thought this material merited production? It's something your teacher (in a kind mood) might write "Good try! What imagination! B-" on, in a community college Creative Writing 101 course. It's the kind of terrible movie that sounds like it would surely be unintentional laugh riot, but is too much of an amateurish slog to actually sit through. So, only "So bad it's bad," not "good-bad." Too bad.

I can't say I agreed with all of the filmmakers choices. Music, editing, cinematography were all hit and miss. But the script was focused, the acting was surprisingly good for a film with this kind of budget, and most importantly, the story gave me the creeps.

I can't say I enjoy thinking about the topics covered by this film. In fact, I generally avoid these subjects as I find them discouraging. But for anyone who's never considered the conspiratorial nature of power, fame, and large sums of money, this is worth your time to watch.

I am not surprised at the low score or sarcastic reviews. In a way, it proves the point the movie is trying to make. I applaud the filmmakers for making a movie they believe in, even though they knew it would get a low score. Not many people are willing to do that kind of thing.
