Goofs

After Honolulu died when his life support was cut off there is the standoff when Waikiki gets a hold of Acapulco. He shoves his head into a 3D printer and turns it on to kill him. Except the whole reason Honolulu died was the power to the entire building was cut off, so the printer would not have been operational.

User Reviews

Enough Uniqueness to Watch

So we have a dystopian, coming soon future L.A. where inhabitants riot to get clean H2O. Within it is a sanctuary of sorts where w/membership & following the rules you can reside in this sort of a hospital hotel secure from all that's going on in the streets. The nurse/doctor runs the place w/the help of a big muscle guy, and robotic medical help. They face all sorts of not-so-nice characters. A bit of violence of course to add spice to the intrigue. Script: A bit scattered at times, but somewhat creative. Acting: Interesting & different. Side note: There's a scene with a body beneath a pier that is almost identical to a similar scene in "Breath".
