About this movie

WARNING: This film contains a sequence of flashing lights which might affect customers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy. Brilliant and brooding, inventor Nikola Tesla (Ethan Hawke, The Magnificent 7) must fight an uphill battle to bring his revolutionary electrical system to fruition. Increasingly displeased by the greed of fellow inventor Thomas Edison (Kyle MacLachlan, Twin Peaks), Tesla forges his own virtuous but arduous path toward creating the innovative alternate-current motor. As Tesla slowly becomes jailed in his overactive mind, his associate Anne Morgan (Eve Hewson, Bridge of Spies) analyses and presents his story as it unfolds, offering a distinctly modern voice in this scintillating biopic of one of the greatest minds of modern science.

I was so looking forward to this film however I felt it was represented in such a poor fashion that I cannot recommend to others. Clearly a 4hr long film cut down with added voice over. Irrelevant characters, fictional possibilities of no relevance and no real sense of closure at the end either. I felt this could have been so much more.

Ethan Hawke gives a good performance in this, but the film is hugely disappointing. It tries very hard to be unconventional but the result is a disjointed mess.

"Most excellent film - the direction is made for the Age of ,mov and totally compresses time/tech from a differing, neon-lit perspective" - Tony Robert Cochran I couldn't agree more. Must see.
