Speed of Life

I rarely watch a flick without knowing more right off the bat, but turned it on a whim. A touch of sci-fi with some added Rom-com was a real treat. Some very imaginative twists made it time well spent.

I was fortunate to catch a screening of this film at USC shortly before its online premiere.

Short, simple, and touching. I loved the relationships in the film, the tongue in cheek jokes about the future, and the emotions behind moving on.

If you're into explosions and action, then this isn't the movie for you but if you enjoy human connection, careful consideration of the human experience and superb acting, then you will enjoy this film. Ann Dowd shines in the main role and her supporting cast does a stellar job. The direction is strong and I thought they made a great story based all in one location. There is a "ticking clock" in the story that I thought could have been utilized more, but all in all, this is a fantastic film. Considering the budget, they all did a wonderful job!

Although the movie has a wormhole around the story toss out any realism around that. The true focus of the movie is about relationships and how they can change over time in my opinion.

It also shows what life might be like in 2024 but I wouldn't take any of that seriously. The focus is indeed on the relationships of people.

I loved how it showed what young people might be focused on versus what they might be focused on later in life.

Loved the pacing of it too.

It might not be to everyone's taste but I could watch it again.

Makings of a great movie but screenwriters and editors clearly championed 2 different hypothesis and epilogues for this movie but Ann Dowd is phenomenal as usual!
