Ben S @RT32152838 6d From the start this film feels like a perfectly middling undergrad class project with clumsily written exposition and try-hard shot composition (there's one particular pan -> dolly creep that absolutely ruins any immersion). The writing continues to be a bit of an afterthought, embracing worn out cliches like "total jibberish whiteboard formula ending in '?' " and just plain lazy dialogue that is at times excessive, in others entirely too little, often just bizarrely timed (e.g. arguing about who gets to drive to escape the scary monster). Plotwise the time loops were a decent concept, but the brother relationship drama was pretty meh. Noticed that the leads' character names are the same as the actors, which kinda reflects the difficulty in the on-screen relationship (I think they're likely pals from outside, hence difficulty getting into the characters). And, like this review post, this movie was FAR too long. Maybe a fun bad movie to watch high. I won't find out.

I was so intrigued by the storyline and the mystery to it that I had to keep watching. The ending is strange though and could’ve been done better See more Christopher S @Chris_dad Feb 12 Saw this on Prime and notice that it had a 91% critic review. (As 2/11/2026}? How? The acting is and filming is good, but the story is dribble. Too many characters make statements that you are going duh. It has some good elements to it, but they are just not worth the effort.

Cosmic thriller littered with dread, anticipation and strong messages of hope. The bond between brothers shows not even a god-like entity has control over a united family. This movie caused an avalanche of symbolism and I'm not even sure they meant to. Considering the films budget (300k) and lack of a named brand director, but executed extremely well I comfortably give it a 4.5/5.

I frankly am upset by what must be clearly inorganic reviews that pushed this movie onto the popular sci fi list. Estimating conservatively, I have watched over 2000 movies. This movie is easily in the bottom 20. It comprises a bad plot, bad script, poor acting, poor camera work, uninspired editing, and abysmal sound work. It begins remarkably interesting but with the bizarre premise of apostates returning to a cult ground (?). I don't mind plot holes, but none of these scenes connect or are logically resolved whatsoever. I understand cult members are strange, but no human would make decisions as irrational as featured in this movie. The interactions are stiff at best. The directors (main two protagonists) desperately need some writing and acting classes. No, this movie does not serve as a strong example of a victim struggling to escape a cycle of abuse. I was holding on for a resolution or reason but there is none. See more Casey B @Cmurda Jan 11 Interesting concept but one of the worst movies ever made. From literally the first minute of the movie they start pushing just bullshit. In the first minute one of the main characters gets a text that says "get a new car battery" within 2-3 minutes later he gets another text asking if he did it. Apparently the character has a habit of leaving the inner car lights on which not a single person on the planet does... low and behold it ends up killing the battery for their escape. Absolute shit. Do better. See more Read all reviews
