crystal075-705-904023 I have no idea how Shane Carruth did it, but this was one of the most interesting films I've seen in quite some time. I actually had to put it on pause once or twice just to breathe, and for that reason I am grateful that I could watch it at home rather than a theater. The story can be a bit overwhelming at times, but my takeaway feeling is one of awe and amazement. Would I watch it again? ummmm. Most likely not. Am I glad that I DID watch it? Definitely. An amazing piece of work that redefines dimensions, parallels and just how hard it can be to come together.

budgetbabecouture This ended up being a beautiful film, but it is clear that in the second half the film got a little bit off course. I can definitely see how people could not understand it. It doesn't mean that they are not smart enough it means they weren't paying attention well enough to be able to think it through and piece it together, but that was a problem with this film. Piecing it together. This is the first film where I actually had to think very hard about what I was watching and then piece it together which I will admit is a bit frustrating. It is good for a film to leave you thinking, but not to where you have to really think and piece together to understand it.

kelvinkelvin-39755 This film is a classic example of a film truly without a narrative. There are many pieces and ideas many of them thought provoking and interesting but as a whole the film falls flat. Which is a shame because I wanted so much to really enjoy this film. the look, the cinematography the acting, all the individual parts are so well put together but the in the end I felt almost as cold and manipulated as the characters in the film. Shane Carruth is a genius pretty much handling everything in film including the score (which is also amazing) but the over all story and journey in which we took from start to finish left me feeling as though I was watching ideas and concepts not a narrative film. Some people I know love these type of mind benders where you can interpret every one of these elements on their on and project how they feel about them. But for me as audience member I want to be taken on a ride in which the film maker tells me something about themselves as well. Overall still a very interesting film I was just hoping for something that would have been a classic sci-fi film and feel that one day Shane Carruth will deliver that to the world just not this time.

Amy B I have read reviews from both parties: the ones that give it a 10 and claimed to have understood the movie, and the the ones that gave it a 1 and called it rubbish.I am here to settle this once and for all, it was rubbish.Why? Because this movie just looked like some stock photos and experimental auditioning joined together with no dialogue or music. Im not kidding, this movie contained the bare minimum of both.This isn't a sci-fi film but even the communication and behaviour between humans in this movie was unrealistic.This movie rises questions that never get answered. The question you will most likely ask yourself is ''what the actual f*ck?!''. This movie just felt like a really bad trip on acid.Trust me, i actually understood what the movie was about, i understood the subliminal messages but it did not make it better. There will be people out there posting things such as ''great movie, very abstract, modern, original, 10/10, only people who are clueless will down vote''.Really? Will you also give it a 10/10 when an artist shits on his camera screen and rolls the credits? Because that's very abstract, I don't understand it but i definitely haven't seen it before so it must be original too.Nah man, it's no big deal to be honest about a movie and how you feel towards it. If it's terrible then the producer will make another and hopefully this time it will be better. No need to encourage bad filming. Don't reward it with such ratings. My review is not even an opinion, it's what i saw on the screen, things are blurry, people moving in slow motions, barely any dialogue, no action, no answers. I might aswel watch paint dry for 9 hours.Better luck next time.
