    Very entertaining sci-fi video
    This had everything I want from a lower budget, idea driven video. I did not want to kill-off the main characters, which is not a given.

    The concept was developed and delivered quite well. Primarily it was easy to watch, no irritating aspects.

    Notwithstanding the fact it did not hit all the demographic pulling requirements nor the pop-culture mandates such as the ubiquitous LGBT genuflecting.

    If you can live without the aforementioned and like the genre, give this a try. I am accustomed to low-end budget movies that show it, primarily in the lack of story. This is not one of those. It lacked some heart but it did pull you in, suspend your disbelief....escaped for a bit.
