    Nah!

    I barely watched the first 30 minutes of this slow and boring and slept through the rest. I recommend this for anyone who wants to get bored to sleep.

    What's wrong with the cameraman?

    The image is shaking all the time, like the camera is too heavy to handle. Use a tripod next time. This way of filming gives me an headache.

    A slow-burn to nowhere

    I'm giving the movie 5 stars for its visual effects, done primarily in Photoshop, After Effects and Blender, and the acting, which was good. Unfortunately, as so often happens, the problem starts with the script. After watching the entire film very carefully, I'm not exactly sure what it was trying to say. There are obviously plenty of metaphors floating about, too many by half.

    Oh, and the director doesn't know where he shot some of the movie. In the end credits, and in an interview with Befores & Afters magazine, he repeatedly refers to the Canadian province of Nova Scotia as "Novia" Scotia. Spelling, like directing, is hard.

    Confused

    I need some point of reference!

    In this movie there is no place, no time, no character building of consequence.

    Yes, I was lost. Watched the whole movie without a clue!

    Why?

    I'm a fan of obscure stuff, but this was something else. Watch the behind the scenes on youtube, it's much more interesting. A little tip for the filmmaker: people usually watch a movie for it's story. In this one there is literally zero of it, it could be a random camera test for all I know.
