    GOOD

    Nicely done, it was different than other low budget (with bigger budgets and famous actors) this film manages to deliver a strong storyline focusing on the main character and his personal journey to save the world from total destruction.

    Clever

    This film blends artistic ideas and entertainment with such a great balance, it was a great pleasure watching this movie. Don't worry about the "low budget look" just follow the story and follow the rabbit all the way deep into the hole...

    Dead or Alive

    This was a fun movie. Great low budget supported by a great story, directing, editing and strong performances. The way it builds up it's very good. Nice balance of intellectual and entertaining sequences.

    New classic

    When you think it's bad it's good, I was hesitating on watching it but I gave it a chance and slowly but surely it kept my interest the whole time. I liked the story very much. I won't spoil it, but I am happy I watched it.

    As good as 1 million dollars can pay for

    So the budget of this movie was just under 1 million and to be honest if you keep that in mind, the movie is pretty good. Of course not huge effects and don't expect A listers to pop in, but that being said, it is a strong sci fi with great ideas and probably will become a true cult sci fi film of the 21st century.
