Tangent Room

I would attempt to call this the best of cerebral fiction, except it's not the best of anything.

This starts out as an interesting premise: four people have four hours to solve a problem or die (Cease to exist? Never existed? Always exist? WHO KNOWS?). The acting starts out reasonably well-done, but soon digresses into a mess of bad directing and poorly-executed unimpressive camera effects.

It's not a matter of "we don't get it". We get it fine-- and it spews. While the idea (which I won't state here-- spoilers) has an interesting foundation, the rest of the house is poorly constructed. The science is the worst of theoretical guessing, the math is nonsensical scribbles (at least, as far as the audience can tell), and the ending totally lacking in substance or sense (other than pure fantasy, which has no place in this supposedly pure-science production).

This is a sneezed boogar of a film that hit a wall and stuck, visibly for everyone to see. The concept had potential, but the execution was severely flawed. Suggestion: re-write, re-make, from start to finish, and next time make sense rather than throwing logic and sensibility out the submarine window.

Omg what am I still watching for..what the hack am I still watching for...oh my Lord why am I still watching this

I'm cutting this one some slack. It's a micro-budget movie that jams in a little String Theory. I'm glad it was only 64 minutes. Frankly, I think they could have cut 4 minutes and made it an even hour. If you like the Twilight Zone, you might like this.

But don't expect to be knocked off your feet. This isn't another Primer. But again, it's a relatively short film, and judging from the set, effects, and script, your investment in time is probably about as big as the budget of this film.

I didn't like the end.

This is a tired old premise, and didn't work well in an indie film. The special effects were lame. They could have done this a lot better. Basically, it's a poor imitation of the Cube movie series.

Brilliant idea let down by horrible writing, acting and direction.

It's a film you want to turn off hey early but don't because you want to see what happens, not because the film is riveting but the concept is intriguing.

Sadly though, it's trash.
