This film is very bad. Skip it.
I have been an IMDB member for 15 years. I frequently rate films, although I rarely ever leave reviews. I am typically very forgiving when it comes to my rating system. If I think a film is bad, I will usually give it a "4" or a "5" because leaving a "1" or a "2" feels like a cop-out or a troll move.
But this "Crimes of the Future" film was so bad and so boring and so poorly written that I felt an obligation to our IMDB society to leave a quick review. It is well deserving of my "2-star" rating.
Perhaps my expectations were a bit too high. I saw some of the recognizable names ("David Cronenberg", "Viggo Mortensen", "Kristen Stewart"), along with genres that appeal to me (Sci-Fi, Drama, some elements of Horror), and I figured it would be worth a try. Boy was I wrong.
This film is a disaster in almost every way. The underlying concept- uninteresting. The dialogue between characters- boring and poorly written. The scene stages- unappealing and cheaply made. The acting- maybe decent at best, but below average at worst.
I would suggest that you do not watch this film. Even if you've enjoyed some of David Cronenberg's films of the past (as I have), you're better off skipping this one. I hope this helps.
