Cryo

The film has a fantastic story, albeit a cyclical one which makes little to no sense by the end. I assume that there is a "deep" and profound symbolism and meaning in the mind of the writer to be found with like minded individuals, but it was lost on me, The flow of the film was confused and perhaps that was intended to keep the viewers mind disoriented in order to keep ends loose for a huge final reveal, but even at the end there are too many end still not addressed or explained. The entire point of the great "experiment" that is the plot itself goes undiscovered.

Intentionally or not the entire cast of characters are an assembly of totally unsympathetic individuals, so much so that their misfortunes strike no chord of emotion to the viewer, one finds themself not really caring what happens to any of them by the end.

The prevailing feeling is dislike for all of them and the overwhelming emotion of sheer boredom tinge with the hope that it all ends soon.

I gave it 4 stars because the actors were all very good in conveying their characters and came across in making the viewer dislike all of them, which I think was the intention of the film???

It was NOT a totally waste of time, but it was most definitely a let down in the end!

The pace of this movie is slow, very slow.

Some decisions in this movie were complete insane, and would have never be done when they were a real survivor group.

Sometimes they are really stupid.

For instance, you have a door with a digital lock, where you can enter 3 digits, so ranging from 000 to 999, and one of the guys say, oh no, there are 1000's of combinations.

So several thousand... Really?

The film is not good obviously, but certainly not bad either, I have seen worse, much worse.

It is just too slow, like the brain of the producer was in cryo state as well...

This was a nice surprise, didn't expect much, but it is very watchable for a low budget indie film and the acting is not as bad as in many other low budget movies.

If you need expensive cgi and explosions this is definitely not for you, but if you like a slower paced sci-fi wodunnit you should give it a try.

It's low budget...and could be a few minutes shorter... however, in the end, it's a good movie, in the vein of "oxygen" where memory loss is key, or "happy death day" where events repeat themselves. It's just low budget...but everyone from cast to crew really gave it their all. Keep on keeping on and things will get better as their craft improves.

Some people wake up in a bunker with their memories in tatters - I love this kind of thing.

It is obvious by the lighting and sets that this is on a bit of a tight budget - but also that the budget has been spent well and their are some talented people involved in this.

The same goes with the acting -everyone is doing a pretty good job.

A totally watchable film.

Unfortunately it is much, much, much too long.

Every time a clue is found, shining some light on the mystery, a piece of salient information is always missing rendering the clue useless.

A viewer can only go through this so many times before they lose interest.

The story plays out like a social deduction board game: a lot of the scenes are people in a room screaming "No you're the traitor!" at each other.

Add the mental instability of the characters and it soon becomes apparent that any dialogue is just a waste of time.

There was an ending, which was ok, but by then I was just glad this was finally over and I really couldn't care less what happened to the characters.

I think a sleeker, cut down edit of this film could really work.
