Multiverse

I always say that sci fi movies are about ideas, and this has a great one along with a compelling storyline.

However.- the budget constraints affect the overall feel. Deadly in sci fi movies.

The direction is good in parts but the action scenes are poor and, boy oh boy, does he like a 'dutch tilt' The cast and script are hit and miss. The deaf girl piece is handled well, the 'psycho' not so much.

Overall I enjoyed it and would recommend it, with reservations.

The production costs of this movie are evidently low. A young amateurish cast and Marlee Matlin do their best with a script that is poorly written, and the dialogue is clunky yet does contains some good ideas. One of the main problems with low budget Sci-fi is the terrible special effects, but in this movie they successfully solved that problem, there are none, which for me works. In the hands of the right scriptwriter and a pot of cash this could be turned into something really good. I have seen far worse movies from the big studios this year, so it definitely gets an 'A' for effort.

7 March 2023. I just finished this movie. I read the synopsis on Hulu and I thought I would give this a try as sci-fi movies on my thing. I am not disappointed at all - I was glued to the screen until the end. I love the twisted ending and I felt that all characters did extremely well. I just look at the other reviews and people were complaining about bad script - I don't think so. I could not have done anything close to this and I have to tell you how much I enjoyed this movie. All the characters were very believable - they look like real friends in real life. The character of the mother was terrific, as well. Thank you all for this movie. I will keep an eye on future projects.

Normally I am not overly keen on sci-fi movies, but every now and again I do dabble and sit down to watch one. And so it was with the 2019 sci-fi drama titled "Entangled" (aka "Multiverse"). Well, I should say that it wasn't because it was a sci-fi movie that I opted to sit down to watch this movie, but it was because the movie had Marlee Matlin on the cast list, and it was a movie that I hadn't already seen.

So I gave it a chance. And while writers Doug Taylor and Michael MacKenzie did manage to put together an interesting enough storyline, the movie was just sort of mediocre. You know, the type of movie that you will watch once and never again. "Entangled" was watchable, sure, but it wasn't a movie that in any way impressed or blew me away with its concept.

However, I did find that the storyline was more focused on the teenage drama that took place in the movie than it did with the whole quantum mechanics and multi universes aspects that the storyline sort of started out by presenting.

The acting performances in the movie were good, I just wish that Marlee Matlin had a bigger part in the movie.

Visually then "Entangled" wasn't really working with special effects. But then again the movie didn't really need an impressive display of CGI to deliver its storyline.

I am sure that there are sci-fi buffs out there that will be a kick out of the storyline told in "Entangled".

My rating of director Gaurav Seth's 2019 sci-fi drama lands on a very bland five out of ten stars.

"Multiverse" aka "Entangled" film is somehow watchable film. I like the concept and theory. So, I'd say it has some potential. But what makes this film bad is low budget and the way of presenting. Although the concept and theory are good, but the presentation style is a bit confusing. I hardly get what they want to show. But I thought through it. So, yeah, I kind of get what this film is about.

Anyway, although I wouldn't say this is a good film, if they have improved the facts that I mention above, it would've made a fine film. That being said, I'm not saying it's a total bad film. It's watchable and I kind of enjoyed the whole thing.
