Closer to God (2014)
10/10
Best Film of the Year
3 July 2015
Absolutely loved this film! This modern, smart interpretation of Frankenstein pushes the boundaries of real-world bioethics and ramifications of human cloning. Closer to God asks what would happen if we could improve our gene pool, making people smarter, stronger, better. What begins as an innocent enough measure of pushing the boundaries of science turns into an moral and ethical controversy fraught with suspension. Of course, the aftermath is explosive as one doctor pushes the science further than he is capable of handling. This film will have you on the edge of your seat as it heads towards the suspenseful conclusion. Seeing classic works revamped for modern audiences is always appreciated, and Mr. Senese's work would make Mary Shelley proud. Very impressive and well-done!
