Very meh movie. Not much of a story, not much info given to us to explain anything, and ends on basically a cliffhanger to nowhere. Overall story has a very "indie" feel to it (which I'm realizing as I'm seeing the credits roll, is probably the case). Not sure what else to say. It's more so a story about the relationship between the two main characters, back-dropped by the [spoiler] alien [/spoiler] story. So watch this if that's what you're into, NOT because of the sci-fi stuff. I'm seriously losing count of the number of times I've gotten suckered into watching a movie, that turned out to only have the faintest trace of sci-fi in it.
Unfortunately a massive waste of time. The premise is good, the meat of the story drags a bit, but I was bought in to it until the ending which leaves you with little to no payoff. Some “high-brow” stuff was clearly being attempted. Meant to trigger discussions about the interpretation of the ending. This attempt fails so badly that I am not willing to spend an additional minute googling to find out what it was about. If the movie didn’t respect my time enough to tell me, it doesn’t deserve even more of my time. Sure, there are movies with open endings. But you can guess at a few different possibilities and the fun comes from figuring out which, if any, is right. This movie is so open-ended that they had to explicitly show “The End” to clue viewers in that it had indeed ended. It’s almost as if they made half the movie and decided to call it quits. Save yourself from this movie. If you really want to watch it, start the movie and stop at any point. You’ll still have a better movie than what this was. Harsh, surely, but true. The actors are fantastic. The premise is great. The pacing is a tad slow but forgivable. The “ending” ruins everything.
Wow. I watched the film all the way through and was left with one overwhelming question. Why did I watch this?
This is very much a one-joke indie SF film that doesn't really end. I thought the girl's performance was great, and some of the writing around two clueless Millennials trying to disconnect was fun, but overall the movie was a big waste of time. One thing that stands out to me, though, is how genuine the relationship between the leads felt. It really felt like they loved each other despite their mutual limitations. Can't say I recommend it, though.
Here's the concept: What if two technology addicted Millenial hipsters were met with an alien invasion when they haven't been able to handle "adulting" yet without a top 10 list from the internet? Here's your answer: The audience becomes bored. 3/10
