      William Bibbiani TheWrap Anything could be happening, even though technically — for the vast majority of the movie’s runtime — absolutely nothing is. May 27, 2022 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times Comes across more like an interminable conference call than the edge-of-the-seat thriller it’s supposed to be. May 27, 2022 Full Review Dennis Harvey Variety A steaming pile of nada. May 27, 2022 Full Review Brian Costello Common Sense Media This is an unsuccessful attempt to make a movie out of a Zoom meeting. Rated: 2/5 Jul 28, 2022 Full Review Peter Canavese Celluloid Dreams Shot entirely via Zoom (and the first half has all the excitement of a work Zoom meeting) the movie that was infamous for being the first feature film to be released via an NFT platform--and it's terrible. Rated: .5/4 Jul 21, 2022 Full Review Susan Granger SSG Syndicate It's, basically, a tedious, barely coherent ZOOM call. Aside from watching Anthony Hopkins deliver mind-melding monologues and playing a piano composition, it's a cinematic waste of time. Rated: 2/10 Jun 16, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

      Hydraxis F This half a star belongs to Aleks Paunovic and Rukiya Bernard for playing the only characters with beating hearts in this film. Appreciably it was a challenging movie to make, in lockdown, but the lazy gaps in plausibility,the introduction of the baddy after about 80% of the film was over, and one of the central characters being able to time travel without apparently knowing how, vital plot points happening off-stage, all had that kids make-believe game feel about it. The sciencey-wiency stuff was time-filler and the whole thing was stitched together with some hackneyed graphics. It was a laudable attempt but unfortunately missed the target by miles. Shows a film can be made during the limitations of lockdown, but not a good one... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/04/24 Full Review Mindful L One of the worst movies I've seen. I couldn't watch past half way. It makes going outside in the rain seem like a better option that sitting down to watch this movie. Nothing happens in this movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review yamman222 Just to big up COVID Diktats was it??? Zoom calls .....zero contact...the whole film, seriously ????....RUBBISH !!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/12/24 Full Review Cas S Excellent film. Complex plot and characters. You must have a basic knowledge of the issues to appreciate this movie. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/09/23 Full Review Roger G I didn't care much for all the electronic readouts on the screen or the shaky camera approach. I get it that it's supposed to be the "eye view" of whatever it is that's observing everyone but it quickly becomes very annoying. And in many cases there's no clear camera that could be doing the observing. Sometimes it's obviously a security camera or the smartphone the person is carrying, but many times it's like, "OK, where's the camera that THAT shot comes from?" The BIGGEST issue is that at the very end it's revealed that one individual has the ability to time-travel and fix things, but there's absolutely no explanation of why he has that ability. It's like, "Oh, gee, I can time travel! " Very disappointing! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Dante P The acting was the best part of the movie but that was severly effected by the poor writing and reponces of the charecters. I think the concept could have been ok if it was written in some conceptually obtainable way. Ill explan this movie. The six charecters meet for the first time on line, in a meeting. They represent the former owner of a company which has advanced technology, some represent the owner who is dead but we find may not be. The company has a machine that needs to be activated in order stop its energy build up from blowing up and destroying the world. But there is a chance that putting in the code may actually destroy the world. What to do? What indeed batman. Meanwhile, two of the people have access to technology, which may be the machine itself, to travel time and stop or help other character's to put in the code or stop them from putting in the code, to activate the machine, depending the team you are on. So, if you found this review confusing you now know exactly how it felt to watch this movie. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
