Level 16

I enjoyed this film I thought it was different, and it played with an interesting idea. It's definetley not for everyone. However its something i found entertaining and thrilling. It's not an amazing film and it won't win an oscar. On the other hand the acting is spectacular and it's a pretty decent film. I reccomend to watch.

Basic premise is a school that raises girls to be prefect looking and obbident they keep them uneducated for this purpose but it creates problems. I enjoyed watching it but there is some major plot holes that ruined some of it for me. How are the girls not able to read but knowing what a farm is and things like that. Overall intriguing but dragged out.

This film is about a facility in which young girls are taught to be clean, virtuous and obedient. This is all done with the promise of becoming the type of girl families will want to adopt. However, things are not as they seem and the reality is far more sinister than they could possibly imagine.

Not a bad film. It is filmed well and the acting is decent. The story unfolds at a slow pace but it helps in building suspense. I wasn't too crazy about the setting even though it was suited to the situation. It isn't amazing but as I said, it's not bad.

Although this story is not a new idea, it is still an interesting premise and the presentation and acting along with good direction makes this film a worthy watch. The camera use and cinematography is bleak and dark, with the use of hazy bright lights used to accentuate the shadows. The music score was perfect and added to the various scenes. The plot plugs along at a fairly decent pace for those movie watchers that don't get bored easy. It is a simple and pretty strait forward movie with few surprises. The themes of friendship, loyalty, courage and greed are well portrayed by the end of the movie. There are some plot holes, yes, but again, the great acting, and the interesting theme brought me thru the movie and allowed me to set aside those inconsistencies and just enjoy what was in front of me. If you find it difficult to set aside your disbelief or if plot holes keep you from enjoying an otherwise well made movie, I admit this film would not be for you. (Or if you are into action films or horror/slasher films). As for me, this was an excellent small budget movie!!

I think when you're doing a micro budget scifi film this is the way to go if you want to get some return economically and critical. I think its dishonest to call this scifi. Its entirely possible to do what they do in the film with the technology we have today. They however covered this up with very solid acting by the main actresses who held my attention and never said or did anything groan worthy. Go in expecting something just below The Handmaid's Tale in quality and you'll come out ok. I'll admit its probably a 6 but I tend to give extra credit when I leave feeling like the writing was well thought out.
