The Scopia Effect

For many people's i read about their review on this movie that gave the rate of 3 below. I'm sorry to tell you but you were totally wrong about judging the movie. It is in the sense that you need a deeper understanding about the topic before you watch this type of movie. because having an Older Age doesn't mean that your smart enough at pointing it out to be a not worth to watch movie. The movie was OUTSTANDING for us who understand and VERY POOR for those who doesn't even have a clue about life who just sits and face their monitor on the COMPUTER.

You can may be judge how bad i am in English but please my Grammar wont make it less sense. The only reason you can't understand an ART like these were because you're dumb enough and stuck on those typical life you have right now. There are many things the Movie that has given.

The emotion was mix. I can even feel it too. it even left me having some sort of unknown feeling. the thrill even gets me with out those annoying LOUD SOUND EFFECTS that most of you "horror movie lovers"-so called people want.

OK, this is my first review and watching his movie compelled me to make an account and write a review in order to remind and aware others to not to waste your 1 hour 45 minutes on this totally insane and psychopathic movie.

The first and most irritating thing throughout the movie is the way it is directed. The camera focuses on peripheral environment rather than the characters and it drives you insane too. I think the director wanted to make his audience feel the insanity the protagonist was going through but this has completely ruined and spoiled the movie.

Next, the story line itself is shown in a very complex manner which further adds to your insanity. Multiple lives in one past life makes it very difficult to contain. The acting is above average.

All in all, avoid this movie.

It is not a total disaster, I mean the movie has a crazy plot and it goes slowly. I was expecting (from some very optimistic reviewer here) something really original, scary and unpredictable.

It turned out to be original, but that's all for what its worth it. The acting is average at best. Around 3/4 of the movie I began to figure it out, and the result wasn't as unpredictable as I was expecting. There are some violence parts, but really nothing to be scared of. So I could not rate this movie as horror; probably an insane thriller is where it belongs to.

It is a shame because the idea probably with a better plot and direction could be a good thing, but it is not.

I stress you not to waste your time and look something else. I gave it a 3/10 because it could have been worse.

I can't understand why this movie gets such a low rating...

If you for example liked "I ORIGINS" it's possible you might like this one too. Though they might be quite different, these two movies contain a similar deeper message.

I'm glad I ignored the low rating here on IMDb and watched it anyway.

I especially liked the ending and the message that was given there. I don't agree with the comments against this movie,

Maybe not for people who like typical Hollywood blockbusters... oh well.

Give it a try you might be surprised

I rented this film on Amazon last night and it kept me thinking all night - about life and death and how to make sense of it all. This film has a very deep emotional and spiritual (not in a religious sense!) message.

I must admit that it is challenging to watch (fast cuts etc). I hadn't heared of Chris Butler before but what he has created is simply unique. It does feel a bit like a puzzle from time to time but once you get used to the language of the film it all makes perfect sense.

The lead actress does an amazing job playing Basia loosing her mind and becoming detached from reality.

After watching this film I had a bit of a Matrix-Feeling... what is this life all about? How are things connected? Is only true what we see? The film is brutal in many ways but it ends with such a beautiful and pro-life message that it actually made me cry. Watch this film if your tired of mainstream. (9/10 stars)
