Zero Contact

Do u silly humans just blindly go watch a movie? Now in 22?

And then they're like omg this was so awful, why? I saw this A list star and I thought...what did u thnk, huh? Are y'all 14 or something? :)) U should know better by now lol.

I did find the concept interesting, and I felt that the acting was reasonably good. Sadly, the things I hate on every Zoom, FaceTime, Teams, or other virtual meeting existed here. If I had been able to mute certain participants at certain times, I may have made it through the movie, but the quiet clacking drove me nuts. I had to tap out.

The rest of the elements brought on by the pandemic existed as well. The isolation, the loss of "safety in numbers," the inability to respond to emergencies because you're all in very different locations, and the constant intrusion into our lives of cameras were all highlighted in the film.

A movie made with "Zero Contact" between the actors. The first (and hopefully last) Covid19-movie. This is not a movie, this is a replay of saved internet zoom sessions with so called actors which do their trick before their laptop camera (or something). It gets annoying within 10 minutes. One starts to ask "What am I viewing?" Then at some point I called it a day, waste of time to watch. An experiment gone bad (i'm referring to the movie, not the story which is basically near absent). To summarize: please skip this one, not worth any attention.

A strange film. Shame Mr Hopkins put hsi good name to this "film".

Save yourself the time and the mental taxation by trying to follow what is going on.

Personally these are my views.

1. Anthony Hopkins is a phenomenal actor and I have such a high respect for is acting skills no matter what film he is in. A fan of his work through and through. There has not and most likely will not be another actor of his calibre in years!

2. The film was filmed, produced, managed throughout Lockdown. Kudos to the entire team for being able to take on the challenge and still succeed in producing a film!!

3. Yea the storyline is a little "wavey" and you feel a little unfinished however! Just for the pure ethos behind it being filmed during a worldwide pandemic makes me still rate this as a 10!

We are all entitled to our opinion. I feel the lower rates are forgetting the other side of film making here. What a challenge! Good to see it unfold whilst sitting in their own places.
