2067

I found this a very interesting concept and story, ruined by some terrible acting (apart from Ryan Kwanten) and the lead character spending most of the movie blubbering and crying (even more than Burnham on ST: Discovery!!!). Also, the music score is absolutely woeful. So many bad choices for the scenes they were meant to enhance. Bigger budget and a better cast may have helped.

Good Concept; Earth devastated by climate change and an nuclear war. The O2 level on earth is running out because of these events. One City has been able to hold out thanks to synthetic oxygen but the oxygen also causes The Sickness.

Below Average Plot; Boring slow middle part Bad Acting; Main are OK Bad Dialogue; Below Average Fun;

Good Decor/aesthetics; Futuristic Neon City, Cyberpunky apartments with visible decay, The opening scene with Bladerunner/Cyberpunky city streets & the transparant television screens is great. There is a great shot in the office of Regina the acting and dialogue in this scene is average at best but the decor is really good imo. There are a few cool shots like of the city skyline around 23min or the shot at 1:02 with the decayed/overgrown city looks like Kingdom of the planet of the Apes.

I rate this film a 5/10. I like the aesthetics but its barely an Average Film.

I am a fan of what the Mothers of Invention called Cheapness. Science fiction movies, primarily from the 1950s and 1960s, in which you could tell Godzilla was a man in a rubber suit, or see the strings suspending the rocket against the black backdrop of outer space. This film, made in Australia, is a modern version of Cheapness. The time machine at the center of the story appears to be a large piece of concrete piping decorated with blinking lights and plastic tubing. There is absolutely no CGI and only one or two soundstage sets. Paintings are used to depict future cityscapes. The story is disconnected, the script straight-up-corny, and the antagonists predictable. But, if you relax and enjoy, without looking for the lack of continuity, it's entirely enjoyable escapism. I really don't think this movie takes itself too seriously and you shouldn't either.

Don't really want to slate this as it tries really hard. Kept me up til 1am and I still rated it a 6. Low budget (tried a bit hard to be higher budget) sci-fi with just enough to make you want to see it through. Music was a bit over the top in places, the actor that played the little kid (although small part) is going places, watch this space. Trailer made it look much better than it was unfortunately. 6/10 seems fair.

I see that movie as a failed chance. The basic story is solid good from the beginning on, the acting is not bad. I like the effects and the ending, but in-between it has serious logical errors, get's too cheesy at a few moments and the music is sometimes over the top. The message is ok, but at some points it seems to be constructed with a common set of story elements, which are used in other movies. That happens especially when it comes close to the end. For me as a movie dude it feels like I saw those in another version earlier with other actors. I think if they would have spent a little more money for a better script, it could have been more delightful. The idea of this movie is good.

I would recommend it for people who like environmental scifi movies and who didn't see many of them.
