Notes et avis

Henry Ian Cusick from Lost, The 100 and The Passage is the lead scientist Quint who pushes ethical boundaries to save his dying children. I'll watch anything with HIC but this one exceed all expectation. Its smart & exciting. The ending just broke my heart. Loved it!

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.
