Warning

I can't say I was bored whilst watching Warning but it could have been so much better. The ideas were there, in fact you could make several different sci-fi movies with all the ideas from Warning. The problem is that now it all felt like an incoherent mess, it looked like short movies glued together in a movie without a clear comprehensive story. The acting wasn't bad, the futuristic views were there, but the execution could and should have been much better and that's a pity.

This movie has a lot of problems. Starting with that it tries too much and what I mean by that is that there is no flow or common tread. This spins on its axel, sometimes shaky cam, some times fixed, and we even see it as first-player-shooter camera at times. Sometimes futuristic music, sometimes nonsense, sometimes the movie tries to sell a future with robots etc and sometimes the feeling is that this is made in the 1980s. And people smoke! Like a lot. When did smoking become a thing in the future? The movie is sold as social criticism one second, and a futuristic existential drama the next. This is family, God, and relationship one second and end of the world the next. This is drugs and rape one second, and slow moving dialogue in Space the next.

This mixture and lack of directing is one key factor why this does not work. You can see the threads, and the scenes, but they are not together, this is not made good enough for us to really tell what is going on. They also mention Covid as a third outbreak with a lot of nonsense attached to it and this virus news is told by a voice sounding like a bored sex worker. So, so bad...

The second big problem with this movie is the low production value. Set pieces, clothes, light, and almost everything about this is smells and look cheap.

The two only positives are the acting which is solid by the entire cast, and the music which overall is excellent.

The movie is unfortunately a complete failure in execution. The script, directing, and storytelling is all horrible.

I can however see potential. Tripple the budget, make the movie 20min longer so we can tie everything together properly and polish up on everything I mention above and this could actually be something. I have the feeling that the idea is good, but nothing else besides acting is so it all becomes incompetent nonsense.

This movie desperately tries to be a futuristic more modern SJW version of Requiem for a Dream dosed with some end of the world porn. And it fails so badly it is not even funny.

I give this a 2/10. This is not the worst I have seen this year, but this is not something anyone should watch. Stay away.

Some of the ideas are pretty entertaining. Some of them even original. The storytelling is consistently good. However, each storyline ends without being entirely satisfying. They just end; they lack a meaningful conclusion.

I am tired and bored of american industry sci-fi, either boring comics adaptations, or postacopalytic situations where americans always end up killing each other, never colaborating to survive, action, bad guys and killings ... so boring and unreal, at least outside USA

this polish/canadian film is different, low budget, but great direction, production, acting and story, actual and realistic

if you like black mirror you will love this one, if you are looking for blood, action and killings look somewhere else.

Honestly, if you like black mirror, love death robots, and this kind of genre then you'll love this.

You know a sci-fi that actually discusses technology and how it could affect us.

Loved it! So glad I didn't see the reviews first!
