If you love very very high concept sci-fi movies then you would enjoy this. Its not a great movie but its storyline kept me entertained and second guessing and is pretty fast paced. The humour is forced most of the times and the dialogue is mostly stilted though. Dakotta is good but its clear the director doesn't try to bring out the best in any of the actors. It also feels as if its made on a low budget but it does well with the action set pieces and yes it does make you loosely compare to the TV series Heroes. But at least this film keeps its plot intricately connected fitting all the pieces together by the end. Its an ambitious plot too requesting the viewer to keep track of whats going on. Worth a DVD rental.
