Intelligent and beautifully crafted

Rating: 8/10 (2 November 2015)

This is a simple but elegantly crafted film which draws on several contemporary themes. It is satisfying and engrossing to watch and builds to an exciting ending. While it probably falls into the sci-if genre I would not be put off by that if you are not someone who regularly enjoys sci-if films. It's a small cast but the actors work well together. They are all young up and coming stars and that gives it a fresh feeling and plays to the modern themes. The scenery and effects are beautiful. I watched it on blu-ray and it was stunning - worth it for that alone. The script is very hip with lots of modern language which I imagine is just how everyone speaks in silicone valley. There is a good twist in the story and it is easy to be drawn into the events as they unfold. I can easily recommend this one. Both my wife and I enjoyed it and would watch it again.
