Hyperland

I liked the cast and the story very much. Will the world sometime be like in hyperland? Hopefully not. So: What should we do to create a better future? The film raises questions. I have seen hyperland some weeks ago and I am still thinking about answers, we do not have, actually. Very interesting.

Nice German production. The film deals with current issues in a not so unrealistic future dystopia. The story is exciting until the end. And the subtle details only become apparent when you look at them several times. But the obvious things are also implemented fantastically. A very diverse cast and even a brief outline of the meetoo debate. Very brave, but in a good way.

Finally something different than always the same boring, stereotypical end-time dystopias. Above all, the current reference - think of Zuckerberg's "Meta" plans - makes this vision so relevant. In addition to the very convincing actors, a very refreshing work visually.

What I love about Hyperland is not only the impressive images that are seen in the film and that create a world that seems very unreal and very real at the same time. It is also the variety of issues that we deal with in our own time - hate speech, sexism, misinformation and inequality amongst others - that are dealt with in the film in a way that makes us rethink what we might have thought about these issues before. The movie stands out in many ways and is definitely worth the time.

They probably didn't have much budget to produce this, which they try to cleverly hide. But in the end this is a pretentious, rather boring sci-fi vision that adds nothing new. It is long, lacks a professional direction and a good script (one would think that both of those are crucial for a good movie). Hence skip this one, there is better alternatives out there.
