Enjoyed it. Nice scenery of upstate NY. Well written and way better than most indie films.

It's been done before, and done much better. This felt like one of those teen movies passable but not nearly as clever as it thought it was. A well worn plot of bad guys pursuing some good guys following a trail of clues to save the world. A wannabe James Bond movie, but without the screen play, budget, actors and director. Kids might enjoy it, but adults will find the disjointed plot frustrating.

What do you get a with a few fun puzzles and a bunch of folks that can't act their way out of a paper bag? This movie!

While it's basically the movie version of an escape room, it's fun and has interesting if fairly predictable ending.

Imagine you're 12 years old. You and your friends are given a budget of $20,000 to make a movie, but you don't have access to anybody who has ever written or made a movie before. You come up with puzzles to solve that either make absolutely no sense at all, or are so simple that your 8 year old brother could solve them. This would be a perfect summary of this movie. The acting is terrible. The plot is worse. There is absolutely no character development. It's unfortunately 88 minutes of my life that I will never get back.
