Beyond

This film starts off well but rapidly descends into dullness and then into being cryptic and intimately finishes in oblivion. I thought this was going to be a good film. The blurb promised a Romance/SF-but the elements of both were surprisingly weak. The romance consisted of a virtually endless series of arguments and the SF aspect consisted of a series of shots of looking at what was apparently a space ship as seen from a distance. The aliens are never seen and there is no communication with the alien vessel. Which is also never seen from up close either. A comet is discovered only to be later revealed to be a space ship. A bond forms between a man and a woman only to be later revealed to be a mistake. And so it goes. The film ends in a series of disconnected images that actually makes little to no sense whatsoever leaving the films audience wondering what just happened here. I would not recommend this movie to fans of Romance or to fans of SF as it doesn't have enough components of either genres to be effective in either genre never mind being an effective hybrid project. I have actually seen this type of thing done better by other actors who were also from the UK and not so long ago either. It is therefor also derivative of another UK project which was better executed than this one. All in all I think this was an inferior film.

Im not sure why this has such bad reviews. It is an intriguing movie filled with thought provoking symbolism. Truly makes you think. the cinematography is great and the acting is top notch, especially for an indie film.

However, do not be expecting this to be an action movie about the survival of the human race during the apocalypse, because it is far from it. It is more about an emotional struggle of the characters and their current situation.

Would definitely recommend this to others.

It can get a bit confusing towards the end but is still worth the watch. It is full of twists and turns that complexity change your outlook.

It seems the entire story almost completely ignores the plot as stated. The acting was not at fault here. It's just basically a bad movie with it's jump from the current to the past to the current to the past, over and over again. Don't waste your time. However, I am required to submit at least 10 lines of critique or it will not pass the minimum requirement to be available for reading. So I lost interest after 30 minutes but still sat here as my wife remained vigilant. When the movie finally concluded after a painful 1:23 hours her response was, and I quote, "Oh my God!". I hope that gives you an indicator to not waster your time.

I was expecting yet another bad disaster movie. This is not what I got. This film wasn't so bad it was good. It was merely bad.

That's not to say it wasn't quality work. I'm sure it was. It just didn't entertain me all that much. Paul Brannigan as the store clerk may have given the standout performance, in his later scenes. I didn't remember who he was until the comment was made by Cole about the incident in the store.

At least I got to laugh when people were dressed in costumes.

Maybe you'll like it. But it's not one of these bad disaster movies.

Not sci fi ,not anything just an incoherent plot with mediocre acting. You can't get the time back so don't waste it watching junk like this.

The story sets of on a path that for a sci fi fan could be interesting but somehow like many recent film's ends up not relating to the characters or plot or description in any shape or form.
