User Reviews

Low budget nonsense

Looking at the movie synopsis "In the near future....etc" I was expecting at least the look and feel of the film to be somewhat futuristic or at least using technology of today. Yet from the opening scene shows old style chunky cathode ray monitors of yesteryear as their computer interfaces but wait a minute, one of the guys is walking around with an ipad... come on, from which junkyard did they scrounge up the CRT's ?. It was a bad credibility start but managed to grind through the implausibility for the most. The set is as claustrophobic as the plot with B grade acting to boot a B movie. Give this one a miss.
