Doe

The reviewers who think this is terribly original have obviously never seen the superlative series John Doe with Dominic Purcell which is still one of my favourite Scifi-Mystery series of all time .

Having said that this is not bad at all for a low budget movie; they took the idea from the John Doe series and expanded upon it and unlike the series (sadly) we do actually get an ending with everything explained which was not entirely original either but this is well above average viewing material.

Acting from all was pretty superb and although it does feel like a tv movie or episode of CSI at times it pulls it out of the bag and gets an above average 6/10 from me!

Really enjoyed this film definitely worth a watch.

I enjoyed it, I am so fed up with the current Hollywood garbage that I'm finding these "indies" films often superior.

This one has an interesting story, could have developed into something a lot more unique - esp for the ending, but it is what it is...

My only serious critique is the dialogue, and I blame the director for it. There is so much silence between the words, either while one actor is slowly saying his part, or before the next actor starts speaking. If you add up all the empty audio, I'm sure it would be ~twenty minutes for the movie! Pick up the pace!

Excellent for background noise, if you're multitasking.

"Doe" plays out a little bit like an episode of Black Mirror. The concept is great(I won't spoil it) most everything else is not. The characters are 2D. The acting is often laughable due in part to a script with the emotional depth of most video game scripts. Doesn't quite make it to the "so bad it's good" territory. It's just a mildly interesting scenario with a very generic adaptation.

Interesting SF film that is largely a detective story. The film offers engaging actors and doesn't promise more than it can deliver. Had the courage to engage my interest throughout simply through storytelling, instead of relying on violence and over-the-top action, which so many films do.
