another cell

Rating: 5/10 (15 June 2018)

This film is like a combination of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Stalker, and Invasion of the Body Snatcher, but didn't made it better than any of the films mentioned. so what is the film about? it's about a lot of things, you can say that it's about a journey of five characters towards their self-destruction (it was mentioned that people who goes to the shimmer has a lot of problems and can see no way out). or you could also see it from other perspective, the endlessly splitting cells could be interpreted as a second chance, to live a life as another cell, or whatever. is it sophisticated as well as 2001: A Space Odyssey? yes it is. a lot of visuals and very few explanation. is the concept as interesting?, i don't think so, it feels like the story and the concept is somehow, uncooked. i can see the sophisticated dish but it's tasteless. when 2001: A Space Odyssey worked like a music, Stalker worked as a poetry, Invasion of the Body Snatcher worked as an idea, this film worked as another cell, an impostor, it looked the same but it has no life.
