Beautiful cinematography, story and music
I stumbled across this movie by accident, but what a beautiful movie this is. It's slow pace, which let you enjoy all the nice pictures and think about it like a good art-house movie does. It goes beyond the typical techno-scifi but keeps facts straight. Plot is very well thought trough. Loved the way the director lets you think about life in a existential philosophical way. The whole atmosphere is beautiful. I wanted to watch only 10 min and watch the rest later. I watched the whole movie without pause or anything, the movie really pulls you in. For me that's a good guideline for a good and quality movie. Thus; Highly advisable, must see, enjoy the ride

Only the 2 points for the nice picture quality
What a disappointing movie is this. It's the first time since years that I feel sad for the wasted time that me and my girlfriend spend on this 'movie'. It have so many useless plot changes and makes no sense at all. I really don't understand why people give it such a high score...??? Please do yourself a favor and watch something else is our advice. I feel the director was inspired by the legendary The exorcist, but it not even get close. Without telling too much; it's a slow starter and gets the 'scary' moments around halfway in the movie, but it's never really scared. Our opinion is that you see a lot of things happening suddenly out of nowhere without a reason, which made the movie unstructured and to be frankly useless, especially at the end
