I would, first and foremost, like to congratulate Joseph Lando for this film. Bringing a local production of this caliber to the big screen in Puerto Rico is a phenomenal feat. The whole concept of the film is a testament to the ambition of someone that really loves to make movies. This film has a lot of interesting symbolism and it does a good job transporting the audience into his own unique world. The action of the movie is definitely amazing, nothing short of a Jason Statham or Van Damme movie. The special effects are surprisingly good and adequate as well. The characters are memorable as well as their quotes. There are strange things in some sequences such as Zack hiding in plain sight, weird choices for props and weird shots here and there with things that seem somehow out of place. Some minor events or things are not very well explained either, so they are hard to follow in terms of continuity. The humor is rather basic and cartoonish to an extent and I feel also that the dialogue suffers a bit from this. I am aware this movie is somewhat meant to appeal to all ages, so I would not be too harsh on these points specifically. The exposition and journey of the character had me very intrigued throughout the whole film and the plot twist was well built with all the symbolism and foreshadowing. It was a very interesting perspective on certain topics involving Philosophy, Science and Spirituality. Personally, I want to thank everyone involved in the creation of this gem because it provides a whole different experience in Puerto Rican cinema. It is definitely a unique film, and it fills me with hope to think that local productions can make it to this level. This film makes me really want to see more of Joseph Lando in the future as well.
