Leofwine_draca SHADOWS ON THE WALL is an indie science fiction drama without any kind of plot development or incident. It's seemingly set in a garage occupied by a bunch of youths working on some new technology that will grant them the ability to access new dimensions and travel to the end of the universe. On an indie budget that isn't going to happen, and indeed this seems to be hoping it'll be the next PI. I have a feeling that the directors of these kinds of film try to use them as a springboard to a Hollywood career but nobody's going anywhere with this static and talky enterprise.

phillipbirch The film fails on most levels. An obsessive 'techie' driven by an idea which actually works, eventually. This is already a feeble "What if ..." to justify what could have been a good starting point. Unfortunately, the plot fails to live up to the original premise. Worse, the characters end up explaining the gaps in the plot to each other, since the production is unable to do so. The next refuge is the 'shot in a cupboard' environment. The producer obviously thought "We don't need much in the way of expensive special effects if nobody can see the environment anyway". The remaining need for special effects is just tacked-on and would have looked cheap ten years before it was actually produced. Finally (no spoiler), the end is almost embarrassingly predictable. A real 'B' Movie.

davidjr2008 I liked the movie a lot but the last 20 Min's kind of ruined it for me they should of just kept it a mystery. They had to add in some cheesy ass government guys and ruin it. I wanted to like the movie more but their acting just fell short... to many over dramatic scenes wanted to throw a tomato at my TV screen. In short I would say I liked 60% of the movie and it could of been amazing movie but they just made a few horrible mistakes. They probably could of cut out 25 Min's of bad parts and I would of gave it a 9/10. The girl was the best actor in my personal opinion , the two kids were seriously making me mad at the over the top paranoid / angry acting. The building of the machine was so 90s ...

rickaholland "Have a Coke", make some popcorn, relax and suspend disbelief. The unlikely unfolding of events and less-than award-winning acting is part of the fun of this kind of film — very much in the genre of the 1950's science fiction movies.Here are science-y people doing impossible, scientific-like things with technological-looking hardware which results in unforeseeable consequences of cosmic proportions. But, unlike modern "sci-fi" movies that rely heavily on computer-generated worlds, violence and prurience, this little film relies almost completely on plot and characters. That makes for a terrific bit of entertainment in my book.(I put "sci-fi" in quotes as most films of that kind today rely almost entirely on magic with not even the suggestion of anything scientific.)
