It's funny how people tend to want to rip this film apart in reviews , the best part is the film was made in 7 days and on a very small budget with a crew of 4 including the director . The film is shot on red one and everyone that has been watching it is watching a stolen version which is a rough cut of the film and people have been misled to think this is the finished film. It's a shame when people steal films and throw them online.
I have to say the film stands strong for what time limit there was to shoot and to get it in done with heavy equipment and camera and limited crew . I would like to see all the people that speak such ill things about others go out and make a film . It's understandable for people to like or dislike something. It's still a good indie film and for people to compare it to 40 to 60 million dollar budgets just makes me laugh...I give the film 8 stars for the hard work that goes into the indie film making.

This was an awful movie. To some that may seem intriguing, but this movie is not even awful in a way that one should be curious about.
The acting was horrible by everyone. The actors seemed to be working with a minimal script (very poorly written) and took to ad libbing the rest. This left almost every scene feeling awkward and unbelievable. The only relief is that the musical soundtrack drowned out much of the dialogue throughout the film.
Which brings me to the overall production. Everything was amateurish at best. I've seen teenagers make more professional looking youtube videos. Weird camera angles and inappropriately executed effects, hacked editing, it all further contributed to the pain of watching this movie.
The story, on its face, is creative and may have been interesting, but was ruined by the lack of any discernible plot. Every scifi seems to have its holes, but the expansive voids in this film were too much to ignore.
Finally, what really blows my mind is the 9 or even 10 star reviews on here. I can only reason that they are paid-for confederates of the movies producers or the producers themselves. To liken this film to any recent big budget sci-fi is moronic and one review even seems to beg for a "hollywood producer" to pick up the story for a remake. It was because of these reviews that I gave the film a shot and now it's also due to those reviews that I feel so betrayed as to write my own.
Don't make the same mistake I did. Take this advice and spend the time you would've taken to watch this film on something more productive like observing the drying of paint on a wall.

I never write review. I'm not even good at writing. I was extremely excited to see this movie. Unfortunately, after watching the movie, I was so disappointed, that I had to register an IMDb account and post a review. Maybe this will get me into writing more reviews in the future.
Anyway, I'll start with the positives. The story was mildly intriguing. It definitely had some potential. The music was good. OK, that's it for the positives. Not much, eh? Well...that's the reason for a 2/10.
Acting: The acting was absolutely horrible by the main character. Everyone else was mediocre. The main character did not seem believable at all. Granted, this was partially due to the things they made him say in the script, but either way, it could have been much better.
Character Development: There was none. The main character was unbelievable and was impossible to sympathize with. I could not imagine anyone reacting the way he did in the same situation as he was placed.
Story Progression: The scenes were too long and drawn out. It was so boring that I had to jump ahead 10-15 seconds at a time just to get through the movie.
Music: Way too freakin' loud and prominent all throughout the movie. I could barely hear what the characters were saying.
Overall: I thought the story was good, but could have been significantly improved. The acting needed to be improved significantly. As much as I hate to say it, I would love to see a Hollywood remake of this.

There are smart, interesting, well-directed, thought-provoking, low-budget science fiction indie films in the world and (other than low-budget) this is none of the above. Nothing about this movie is even marginally competent or enjoyable to experience. Just don't.
The plot, the story, was great. Original and creative, sadly that is all that it has going for it.
The acting was nothing short of atrocious, I can see what the director was trying to do, maybe they should have sacrificed some of the plot to build character, better yet, hire some better actors. They were amateurs, there was no "oomph" behind the performance, no emotion.
The sound editors, fire them. Do they even understand what balance is? The film crew? Do not do with a camera what you cannot do with your eyes, it breaks focus. You have a long way to go, use the dolly. It's there for a reason.
I hope someone does remake this, doing it properly. It'll be much more watchable.

- Alternate versionsThe original, 110-minute version that screened at various venues contained extended dialogue scenes during each office conversation. It lacked the shots of Olivia Baseman's character watching Lukas and Damon in the bar and also lacked the opening text explaining the laws of the Many Worlds theory. There were also various takes and shots that are different than in the final version of the film.
