    • Quotes

      [first lines]

      Lina Vance: So you're saying that the Quanta Group is *completely* self-sufficient. No medicines, no shopping for clothes, no sneaking out to a movie every now and then?

      IO: Well occasionally we need special supplies, but we spend most of our time working on our studies. We like to keep to ourselves.

      Lina Vance: Well I'm sure you can understand that that kind of behavior can make some people a little uncomfortable. So how do you respond to those who call the Quanta Group a cult?

      IO: Well this is why I'm here, to convey that we're not. Our belief system is based on empirical evidence. Cults are based on blind faith. Sometimes on science fiction author's beliefs.

      Lina Vance: I see. Well let me ask you, how long has Doctor Talbot been leading your organization?

      IO: You would define define it a "10 years".

      Lina Vance: Really? Well how would you define it?

      IO: Well the teacher has shown us that time is non-linear. It could be 10 years or 10 minutes. It all becomes irrelevant in the context of a multiverse.

      Lina Vance: Well unfortunately my time is all too linear here, so we're going to have to be wrapping it up with IO, from the Quanta Group. I love the name, by the way.

    Slow and tedious...
    With two competent leads (Johnny Messner and Jon Huertas as paramedics abducted by a cult), one fairly entrancing nemesis (Daniel Benzali as the cult leader), seeds of a good story and decent direction, one immediately thinks this movie could have been much better.

    Writers Daniel Myrick, Julia Fair and Daniel Noah seem to have come up with a basic idea, without being able to elaborate the concept further. The result is a story with few interesting elements in-between its introduction and conclusion, and no rhythm whatsoever.

    Details of the cult are brushed over. Viewers are probably supposed to see this as shrouded in mystery but instead, the sentiment is that the writers failed to flesh out these things. And since none of the imagery, dialog or plot element is particularly engrossing, we can't take a "mind trip" as if this was a Lynch movie either, because use symbolism in this film is weak and immature.

    Director Daniel Myrick (Blair Witch Project, The Objective) has done much better in the past but here, there's simply not enough happening to sustain our attention for long. If the details were to remain that sketchy, I think this would have been better off as a sort of Twilight Zone TV episode.

    I appreciate the attempt but this is Myrick's weakest movie I have seen.
