    Kept me entertained. Certainly raises the bar for budget films

    There aren't many reviews for this yet so I'll add mine since it currently has a very low rating - I've read the 1 star ratings and they all admit they didn't watch more than 10 minutes, the people that did watch this to the end gave it a decent rating. That should be worth noting when judging the reviews. Yes it is low budget, I mean when the plot starts with 2 nerdish actors in tacky clothes in a basement with a few computer parts as their scientific experiment, few ducting pipes and a lot of clutter I thought this was one of a million badly made movies I've seen too many of already but it doesn't take long before the story starts to intrigue you even if implausible and the special effects are not worth bragging about. Give it some time and the story becomes interesting. You develop a bit of a connection to the characters, vince is still a monotonour robot with his acting all through but he is just the sidekick and does add an interesting twist to the story. There are lots of interesting twists that I thought were original. If you watch it past the first 20 minutes and you like sci fi then you will know the special effects are nice but without a story a film is just meh, this has the story, it just lacks the special effects and better budget but I prefer computer games that are fun over computer games that have the best graphics, as such I enjoyed this more than some hollywood films I've watched.

    For the true sci fi aficionado

    Very low budget indie, basic sfx, but a sci fi plot that depends on viewers with imagination. Parallel universes.

    What it excels at over Hollywood is: no social agendas, no identity politics, no pandering to special interest groups. Just entertainment.

    Don't bother it is terribe

    This was terrible and the review saying it got good once they stole the thing from the house is telling porky pies! very easy to work out what i going on the 'twists' don't count or entertain when the plot is so obvious! Seriously don't bother the acting is absolutely dire too

    Low expectations turn into high payoff

    Read the real critics reviews! Honestly, I watched the trailer and even the first 20 or so minutes of the film and I thought, "oh no." But, hang in there...once the protagonist duo breaks into their co-workers house the twists and turns begin. However, unlike so many of the same old, same old types of higher budgeted films this one keeps you guessing until the BIG twist at the end. If you can sit through some exposition at the beginning the payoff is huge and I was truly entertained. The main star gives a performance that sells both "multiverse" versions of the character, "Scott." And his sidekick, "Vince," compliments his performance perfectly. The last monologue is truly epic! I am only holding off 10 stars because they could have done more with a bigger budget, but the story and the payoffs kept me guessing. Low budget Sci-Fi has a new bar to meet. Please make a sequel!
