Mnemophrenia

This is a very interguing idea, that could be a reality. I was fascinated to see where this would go. It is very current where I think technology and memory will start to get mixed up and we won't beable to tell the difference between the two. Watch it! I rarely am enthusiastic about contemporary film culture, but this was really good.

The 44 reviewers that gave this movie a rating of 9.0 must have worked on it because there is nothing positive about this movie except the graphics tried.

This movie was so bad. Boring, poor visual effects and bad dialogue. The only reason it has a good score is because of reviews.

This is one of those rare occasions when watching a yet undiscovered movie makes you feel genuinely lucky. Going into this movie with only a basic knowledge of what it is about but with a good deal of interest in the broader topic, I must say that I was given ample food for thought. Mnemophrenia manages to intrigue and entertain in equal measure. Given the movie's low budget, this is a trully remarkable feat.

"Er...um...yes of course now surely you can all see how this could change us all in the future, giving us such freedom to...." To what, not know if half or more of what we think are our actual memories are true or not? To move freely in what way(s)? This very arthouse movie is overtly nebulous in its attempts to show great meaning and arch intellectual reach. Acting is often mediocre at best. The actors seem more like stage actors than ones used to performing in front of a camera. Characters say a number of statements like, "Imagine the possibilities of life with mnemophrenia.", or, "Can't you see what this could mean for the future?". But they don't go into much detail about what it could mean aside from inferences about empathy/understanding being increased. The visual work is often impressive in the use of the computer analysis overlays and in creating a dream-type effect during the VR scenes. But I felt too often the film was meandering, repetitive.
