An incredibly creative and innovative film!
solningyi26 March 2023
The film is inspired by the covid time when no one is allowed to go outside with a rich imagination of how technology may turn this into perpetual truth even after covid is over.

The creatives patiently build a world that shows isolation and loneliness in an era where everyone is confined in their own homes. Five characters are stranegly connected by discovering some anomaly in a show they watch virtually together. That virtual world is so well crafted and you feel it almost really exists - hats off to the production designer (s).

There is no moment in the film I could tell where it's going, and it ends with the meaning we all look for in life: connection with others.

Not even REMOTE-ly worth the watch.
jsmorilak-613001 March 2023
This film is a 90 minute master class on how to waste someone's time with a boring premise and miserable plot. There were only two points in this film where a joke landed and in both those instances it just put into perspective how awful the rest of the film felt to trudge through. The performances are good and the editing is elaborate, but the sound design which had been so dramatically heralded for its "ASMR qualities" before my watch gave me headaches and felt amateurish at best. This movie is aimless and lacking the proper chopping. Watch any black mirror episode and save yourself the pain.
