Algorithm: Bliss

I found the initial concept of controlling emotions through modern technology to be a fresh approach on the subject. The initial idea however seemed to devolve into more of a horror movie involving a number of the protagonists. The movie never seemed to fulfill the expectations of either genre leaving the viewer disappointed on both levels.

Script was poor. it seemed like actors hardlly anything to talk abt. limited material. Actors tried but script didnt help them. Science was unreasonable. many unexplainable things. cast was very limited. the whole movie felt lonely

It could have been an 8 with better editing and a better crafted last 1/3rd of the movie.

In short: If you are all about the effects, this movie isn't for you. If you like low budget and well crafted movies, this is. CInematographically speaking it isn't aced, not even close (editing, pacing, lighting, camera shots etc - all could be better), though with that being said most areas are above anticipated for this kind of movie. And it does somehow feel somewhat fresh to this type of movie, maybe because it focuses on the character study and does that well.

For those who think these kinds of things are far away; look up OCZ NIA - that is a brain interface for mainstream gamers that came out around 15 years ago. If you ad that to the scientific pair of doctors who made nerve crafted implants to their vertebrates and could actually "trade" feelings this is very close to home when it comes to science that is out there yesteryear.

Pro's Character study Somewhat fresh and some chemistry Good band for the buck versus budget

Con's Budget Editing at parts Varied script or if it was due to editing - some parts could have been done better

The acting is so bad, seems like those beginning of scripted p o r n especially the 90's ones.

Everyone behaves in a completely illogical fashion. The basic idea is just silly. The budget production grates and i thought the lighting was bad. I think that you would regret watching it.
