Incontrol

It had strong language, alcohol, drugs, adult scenes, gore, murder, guns and sharp weapons.

I think it could have been more interesting if there was more developed. It had a slow paste at the start and quickly became boring to watch, the first half of the Movie was boring, and predictable, I found the characters developed was half finished. I would of liked a little bit more.

I didn't really like The main character, Samantha who used the device in a selfish way. She made her boss at work say things, so that she could have more time to be addicted to the machine. but I did liked that she tried to get her Mum out of the negative slump she was in, but we never really saw how that played out.

The Movie was kinda of choppy and it felt like there was too many gaps missing and that made it Confusing. I think it needed an ending that explained more about the experiment, and I found that there was a lack of tension and suspense in the Movie because that what I love about Sci-fi Movies that's what I look forward too. I would say if I watched another Movie with the same idea, with the technology but if the story was better, I would be happy to watch it.

I think I saw a little scene with an lgbt charter which I liked but I would of like to see more of it within the Movie. I liked the music that was used and I think it went well with the scenes. The other thing I liked was the acting. I think the people who played victor and mark did a really good job.

This Movie kinda of reminds me of a book which also has a Movie which is called everyday. Its about this thing that calls itself A and each day A wakes up in a diffident body, but with everyday its not A's chose. It just happens and A doesn't know how to stop it.

I've never watched a movie that seemed so unfinished. What they had was pretty good. Perhaps they can get the bucks to clear up all the loose ends. Give it a watch because it is interesting and acting is decent, but beware you may feel unsatisfied when it's over.

In control had potential to be an interesting film. The premise of migrating your mind to another's body is a well tested concept, but in controls rendition of this wasn't too cliché.

Unfortunately the film went nowhere, there was no suspense, excitement or intrigue - well...there was intrigue but this relates more to the feeling of watching the last 10 minutes in bemusement thinking "cmon! Just explain...SOMETHING!?"

The music was very tedious...stylistically you can see what they were aiming at: a fugue like state. But the music ended up just slowing the film down...the plot is slow enough already. A well composed score would have really helped this film realise its considerable potential, emphasising the "post modern" dream state. If they had achieved this sylistic concept more successfully - in score as well as every other element of the film - it may not have mattered that there was woefully written dialogue, cheap cinematography, no real character development and a very lazy plot.

Despite all this I actually enjoyed it in a funny way. As a technical exercise in film making, however, it did not succeed; and as an exercise in "feels" it didn't do too well either, watching it was basically a pleasant way to pass time!

I have to say up front that the basic theme of the film - being able to experience existence in any other physical state than being in one's own body - is of great personal interest to me, both personally and, at one point, professionally.

So, the filmmakers were at a simultaneous advantage and disadvantage, with respect to me.

That said: from an objective view, they did pretty well with what one can assume of their budget, and the script largely worked with the concept of exploring the meaning of the self alongside the potential trappings brought by the ability to manipulate the reality of that self.

Again, in context of what the cast and crew had to work with, the acting is above b-movie mediocre, albeit not so much as to distract from the obvious and expected dropped lines or unrealized punch points in the script.

Speaking of which, the script laid out a scenario with great potential only to get too bogged down in minutiae and unnecessary dialogue.

I still go back to the ambition and creativity of the premise - body-swapping-type stories have been done many times, but this falls outside the norm due to the psycho-physical interaction and heavier philosophical questions that ensue. This isn't low-budget Face-Off or another failed attempt at the ideas behind Transcendence. These guys went for the gold.

They didn't hit gold due to budget, but at least they tried.

A worthy watch for any sci-fi or sci-leaning fantasy fan. A solid 6 rating - that rating meaning at least 60% of all I've ever seen were lesser than this in some way.

Then again, that's out of at least 10k, so you do the math.

Watching Incontrol was like reading a good book, only to find that the final pages are missing.

It's not an original idea and the film itself will leave you with many many questions,which I suspect will never be answered.

Its a real shame as it had so much potential but it felt like the writer(s) just gave up towards the end.
