Quanta

Another low-b film that goes nowhere and ends nowhere. The script has the same horrible dialogue that so many low-b films have. I wanted to like this film coming out the gates but as the minutes rolled by, I realized that I was wasting my time.

A discovery. Something cosmic about said discovery. Disagreement on how to handle the discovery. Government (or in this case a University) wants to hide and control the discovery. Sadly, the entire film is about the arguing of the discovery rather than exploring the discovery. Seriously!

This film is a lot of the same that we've seen in so many other small films yet nothing new or interesting. Watch at your own risk, the risk of wasting your time. the good news is that after watching this film, I quickly began to forget what I had just watched, so almost as if it had never happened.

I've never met a scientist as dull and lifeless as they are portrayed in movies. I get that Hollywood types don't encounter people with above average intelligence in their daily lives. If they'd venture beyond their self-induced ignorance chamber once in a while they'd be shocked to learn scientists are real, actual human beings with personalities and interests beyond their area of expertise.

The premise of this movie was interesting but the script made it deadly. I dozed off several times and had to rewind, only to see I missed absolutely nothing. The film could be cut down to a commercial without losing anything. Half the film is about how rich the scientists will become creating a radio to listen to aliens so far advanced we're all Hollywood types in comparison. It simply makes no sense.

As for the dialog: words cannot express what those words could not express.

Three stars for an interesting concept. Zero stars for the plodding direction, atrocious acting, dreary sets, dull background music, first year film student camera work, and tepid editing.

Three stars.

Yes the acting is not extraordinary, yes the filming quality is not that good, the storyline is OK. Watched it and did not regret "wasting" my time, would I recommended because it was that good, probably not. But if you like movies that have bit of science or tech in it, it's probably worth to watch.

A frustrated & obsessed scientist loses his job, but just can't let go of his project - the data & information transfer from Dark Matter/Energy which makes up 95% of the universe as we know it(all of the information of, & in, the Cosmos).

A lot of creative license is used, but I found the movie really enjoyable & the characters likeable (although his assistant was an arrogant spoiled brat that you really wanted to chastise in the most gratuitous fashion possible at times) which carried the story of the costs of obsession, the arrogance that can come with high intellect if it's not kept in check & the unforeseen consequences of causality when it's not.

It was also a warning of putting powerful new tech out into the world without proper R&D, without fully understanding it & the consequences of giving people more knowledge than they can understand (& how it can induce mental health issues & suicide in the wrong hands). Too late for the internet, mobile phones & social media in the real world, obviously!

A warning to all of the dangers of tech, AI & the abuse of technology. Don't lose your humanity people.

Might not be what hoped for but trust me, made my night.... I luv this..... It's inspiring, I mean, I had to recommend it..i got what I wanted from it.... ➕ I Luv d tune
