Bewertungen und Rezensionen

Interesting but could have been better. The story jumps between flashbacks, fantasy and present time and the viewer has to do the work to figure out which is which. Acting is decent and production value is good. Kudos to the filmmakers for taking some risks. This is not your usual sci-fi/horror film. There's a lot of depth here but it is also a lot of work.

Interesting hard sci-fi flick. I liked the scientific details and they way everything comes together in the end. Loved the suspense and drama. Did not see that coming but thoroughly enjoyed the entire third act, especially the ending. Great soaring score, not sure who the composer is but well done.

This is a small indie film with big ambitions. The story is a little hard to follow but for me that is what made it interesting and intriguing. I quite like the acting especially the two leads - Cusick and Quinlan. The other actors are good too. The emphasis on science was pretty cool, and the twist in the end made it for me. The effects, makeup, production values etc are decent.
