Speed of Life

What a nice little movie. Although there's no WoW moment, I consider it very special. This movie is more than well done. It's a simple story with a supernatural aspect. And the way it's presented is just very beautiful to watch. Might not be everybody's cup of tea, but for me, I enjoy movies like this big time.

This cutesy story is solely focused on a couple and their love story with just a dribble of futurism/scifi. Yes there is a wormhole but it isn't the main focus of the movie nor is any of the futuristic dilemas the planet seems to have headed toward. If you watch movies because a plot reads well and not based on what common folk write then you'll enjoy this film quite a bit. However, reading reviews afterward I did have many questions that will be left unanswered by this film; but that none that many other films or real life aren't already discussing.

If you're into explosions and action, then this isn't the movie for you but if you enjoy human connection, careful consideration of the human experience and superb acting, then you will enjoy this film. Ann Dowd shines in the main role and her supporting cast does a stellar job. The direction is strong and I thought they made a great story based all in one location. There is a "ticking clock" in the story that I thought could have been utilized more, but all in all, this is a fantastic film. Considering the budget, they all did a wonderful job!

Great story, great acting. Really sweet. The cast is phenomenal.

I was fortunate to catch a screening of this film at USC shortly before its online premiere.

Short, simple, and touching. I loved the relationships in the film, the tongue in cheek jokes about the future, and the emotions behind moving on.
