This movie had been on my "To Watch" list for a while, and I finally got round to it. It was not at all what I expected, and definitely takes you places you are not expecting.
A young boy, named Eli is hyper allergic, and lives in a plastic bubble, or rarely ventures out in a hazmat type suit, or he will die from extreme allergic reactions. His parents discover a scientist who claims to be able to cure Eli, so they scrape together the money, and move into her hermetically sealed clinic. Here Eli can move around unhindered by protective suits. Things start to get a bit weird, and Eli begins to question everything.
I would have rated this a bit higher, but I did question some of the scenes and how people did or didn't react. I also found the boy playing the lead a bit unconvincing at times.
But all in all a very decent movie, with a few scares and lots of twists and turns. Definitely worth a look.
