I've never watched a movie with a rate under 6, but I'm making an exception for this. I like the storyline which makes me curious what happens next, even though makes me confused at the same time, but I don't really like the sad ending.

I watched with English audio.

I assume it makes more sense in Spanish. The Spanish title does.

Rescue Distance. It is the "thread" that makes it make sense. It is repeated continuously. And somebody chose Fever Dream instead?!

I have more questions. And very few answers.

Madres made sense. The poetry in this film seems lost in translation.

Starts out mysterious and great. But shuts down and ends before ever beginning. Explanations left short and cut and suddenly the build up we've been expecting ends. It never evolves. And then it's just over.

Fever dreams ... or crazy reality? And caused by what exactly? I am still rather confused by many things depicted by the movie. That may be enticing or it may be annoying to you. Depending on how much time and will you have to fully take this in and digest it ... well that will determine how much you probably will like it.

You can't just watch this while doing something else. Like having your phone and doing stuff on it while "watching" the movie. I have done this with lesser titles, so I am not judging. Some movies are more than predictable and do not really glue you to the screen. This is different ...

For this entire movie, you watch people alternate between losing their minds over nothing, under-reacting to major issues, and rambling about crack-pot theories. But you keep watching because the story is told so well that you find yourself sucked into it.

Then at one instant, you'll realize that the entire thing is essentially just an anti-science rant that's based on a serious lack of understanding of numerous topics. And that's not even a spoiler. Because the actual topic is so moronic and far-fetched that you would never guess it with 1000 tries.

They should have just gone with "It's aliens.". It's just as dumb, but at least it makes sense.
