Anyone giving this a high rating is lying! Do NOT believe them and waste your time like I did! ZERO chance this is s 7 movie!
Basically a 1 person cast. Lame plot, lame 'action', ridiculous ending.
There was nothing in this movie that made any sense. Worst portrayal of some super hacker/high skill computer person ever. She's so smart but keeps getting 'hacked'. She's being chased, but no one ever tries to really get her. She's what, rich to afford her set-up on acres and acres including and underground bunker? No backstory whatsoever.
The main character is all over the place with her emotions, acting, work practices, everything. It's bad!
I've already told you how bad it is but I have to meet this 500 word requirement! Why does this exist?!? If you can't say what you think succinctly it's not worth saying it.
Anyway, you been warned.

With the subject of my review you might be even more confused, I know that with a title like "crypto..." I expect the movie to be 100% technology based, and it is but put in a way that even if you are not a geek you will be pulled into the story and the drama. If you are tech savvy, you'll enjoy it deeply, albeit some little flukes that I'm sure are put there to make it more amicable to the not really techy.
The plot is very engaging and even that there is only one face in the whole movie, the actress carries the weight very well.
If you get thru the movie once, you'll enjoy it even more the second timer around.
For those that are followers off the authors, everything falls in place at the right moment.
100% recommended if you are into thrillers and drama, but if you are also into sci-fi, this is a must watch.

Crypto Shadows captivated my attention from beginning to end. The slow dynamic build of story and character development took me on a dramatic and suspenseful journey that culminated in a thrilling climax and an unexpected resolution.
Mikayla Iverson's performance was outstanding. Her raw and emotional portrayal of Cara, a woman seeking solace on a secluded family ranch after a life-altering trauma, left me with a sense of both compassion and an understanding of the resilience of the human condition.
This film was beautifully shot and edited with inspirirational direction and sound design. I would highly recommend taking the time to indulge in this nail biting, dramatic cinematic experience. You won't be disappointed!

Some of the reviewers out there were a little harsh in their critique - It was just a one actor movie, or it had too much sighing, or it was boring, etc..
For a small budget production, and minimal special effects, it was actually pretty decent, and it kept my attention all the way to the end. Mikayla Iverson did a good job as a stressed out computer game developer who inadvertently stumbles onto some code she was not supposed to see, and finds herself on the run from people who want to shut her down.
I generally rate a movie by how well it can to hold my attention, and this one kept me glued to my screen all the way through!
My only regret is that it I wish it lasted a little longer, to give it a more complete ending.
A good, watchable movie, and I recommend it.

Effects on the computer screen are OK. Acting from the sole actor is OK. It's just kinda pointless. The plot doesn't lead very far. The lead character bounces between staring at the screen in frustration and shuffling through the woods.
I got some help finishing this review. Crypto Shadows promised a thrilling dive into the world of cryptocurrency and espionage, but delivered nothing but disappointment. The storyline was convoluted, jumping from one poorly explained crypto heist to another without ever making sense of the stakes involved. The characters were as flat as day-old soda, lacking any depth or development to make us care about their fates. Even worse, the attempts at suspense fell flat with predictable plot twists that were more yawn-inducing than shocking. Save your time and money for a film that actually delivers on its promises.
