Original and Peculiar

Rating: 7/10 (15 September 2017)

(Flash Review)
I watched it 90% because of the title alone (ha) and 10% the plot seemed original, which it most certainly was. In this world, people live in a society that dictates that you must be in a relationship at all times. Anyone 'found' to be without a mate, is bused to a hotel where you have 90 days to find a mate OR be turned into an animal.an animal of your choice at least. The staff at this hotel institute certain measure to facilitate the 'guests' to find mates. The film's tone is semi-dark and offbeat and all the color is heavily muted; lacking color saturation. There are some surreal moments and a fitting score while the story plays out at an methodical pace. The story tends to drag a little in act 2 but act 3 leaves many story points open ended with intrigue. The sub-message appears to hint at society's influence that people should strive for relationships/marriage and those who don't tend be treated as blacks sheep. Certainly worth a look for those seeking something anti- Transformers.
