This was my choice from the new collection of steaming garbage thats out cause I am a sucker for Sci Fi  :P

One of those lower budget movies made for streaming that gets a short theatre run..

What a mess of a movie. I couldn't follow the plot and really didn't even care to after a while.

Cool looking at moments but very digital, has some pretty shit CGI effects and allot of stuff I wouldn't be surprised to find out was AI generated.

Hot girl in the lead overacts and emotes her way around but you don't care one bit about her. Tough role for her to have to act like she's having a nervous breakdown the whole shoot.

Rest of the cast is 100% forgettable even though you are supposed to feel some Alien style connection to the other characters.

Not even sure its worth a watch on free stream really.... probably better on the big screen visually.

I did some basic digging on this so just wanted to add what I think the issue is.

The guy who made it is known for "making music for the ADHD generation" and that makes sense as it really feels like it was made by someone who cant focus.

There are crazy amount of quick edits and shit going on so you can never really focus on anything. This is likely why you cant really care about the characters as no real time is spent developing them, shit happens quick and then its off to the next thing.

It's getting some decent reviews so I think if your brain works like that or you are a social media junkie maybe it would work for you. To me it felt like a jumbled mess with no point.
