Life Cycle, an intriguing film

Life Cycle is quite an impressive undertaking from first-time writer/director/filmmaker Chris Morvant. He covers the bases when it comes to delivering what it takes to make a good movie; solid script, acting and film technique. He even throws in animatronics for good measure. His success is more impressive when you realize he tackled this project during the peak of Covid, abiding by a litany of testing and strict health regulations-no small feat. Starring in this futuristic head-scratcher is Adam Weber who gives a terrific performance tackling a wide range of emotions. He portrays a computer programmer with a side hobby ambition of creating his own sentient A. I. His success sends him on a journey of "parenthood" after his creation, Vetro, is "born." Morvant's script is filled with literary and classic-film references that showcase his passion for the movie industry that he seems to be perfectly suited for. If you have a true appreciation for the art of filmmaking and love movies that leave you thinking, Life Cycle will not disappoint. I am definitely looking forward to Morvant's next endeavor. I'm sure he will soar, especially without Covid annoying restrictions!

Trivia
Christopher Morvant's first feature film, Life Cycle, was shot in little under a month in a garage in South Orange County. Minimal crew was hired due to strict filming policies during the pandemic. Creature Effects, an LA based company that built Vetro the animatronic head, worked attentively to bring this vision to life. Four remote operators worked in unison to convey the myriad of emotions that Vetro expresses throughout his life cycle.
