Purely Joyful Movie!

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Torturous, pointless, boring screenplay wandering aimlessly in search of a plot. Apparently, the future is really ugly and trashy. Dont wate your precious free time on this garbage.

Duncan Jones 4th feature is a nice enough homage to Blade Runner whereby a futuristic German city (it looks like it was shot there & a lot of the cast are German actors, not to mention his dad, David Bowie famously spent time there in the late 70's & recorded a trio of albums) is filled w/unhappy & lonely denizens trying to make connections in this cold techno environment as we follow a mute bartender trying to find his missing girlfriend. There are some nice cinematic touches here besides the Runner lift where Paul Rudd looks like a dead ringer for Elliot Gould in M.A.S.H. (he plays a doctor here as well) & one of the German bouncers looks like Dave Prowse's (Darth Vader himself) character from A Clockwork Orange but if you can get over the stylistic tropes, the story sneaks up on you.

Honestly, this movie could have been so much better. It was entirely too slow, and when it had a chance to have a Walking Tall moment, it didn't even show the fight.

This is my first review on imdb. The cinematography in this piece is on point. The characters and roles unexpected, which though some people have criticised in their reviews, in my opinion was a true plus.The performances were convincingly over the top, and really made this film shine.Though the budget for this film may not have been "blade runner size," the actings truly compensated, and more.Several people have written in their reviews that it doesn't make sense, the story line doesn't go anywhere, etc. Simply untrue.If the speed or pace don't seem to make sense, you just need to pay closer attention. I switched on the subtitles to that I wouldn't have to go back and forth too much.If it was in a theatre, I might have lost myself at a few points and not been able to piece it all together in the end. However, watching this from Netflix and being able to pause, reflect, and continue, there was nothing left unexplained, unless intentionally.There were tiny little teasers tastefully sprinkled through this film. There were cringeworthy moments, so sweetly short that before you could turn away from the screen, would be over.I had to write this review because if you were not to watch this film, you truly would be missing out on something.Films like these are hard to come by, and pick out through all the garbage that floats at the surface of Netflix.Nice work by them, and I hope they continue developing unlikely storylines and scenarios such as this one.
