The opposite of masterpiece

Rating: 3/10 (14 March 2018)

This move was a huge disappointment. It felt lazy and contrived, relying heavily on it's "amazing visuals" more than anything else.
The final scene with the lighthouse was impressive at first but eventually felt like wasted opportunity to explore the questions that the film was asking. Instead it sucked viewers in with pretty visuals right until the end. The the final sequence the lead simply hands over a phosphorous grenade to her alien double and escapes.....Was it really that simple? I thought your double was shadowing your every move, then why did it let you just place a grenade in it's hand before you bolt for the door. It just felt unbelievable and cheap, but not unusual given the lack of plot right up until that point.
Like plenty of other comments on IMDB, I'm astounded as to how so many reviewers have labelled it a masterpiece or an 'intellectual sci-fi'. It does succeed in avoiding some cliche sci-fi territory but it's ambiguity and surreal 'less is more' plot will inevitably polarize viewers, and I predict these high IMDB ratings (currently at will 7.6 will gradually decline as it reaches a genuine audience without the paid hype.
