Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Mohamed Abdalla Most of the people who didn't like that movie forgot the opening phrase which is "I think, therefore I am", which actually explains a lot of the movie concept and the non realistic events, for example why would a woman love a man who is basically a data on the computer ! The only explanation that it's because he is thinking and he has his own feelings.The main idea behind the movie tries to suspects our existence and put a hypothesis of "What if this world is not real and you live in a world made by a computer?". It resembles the idea behind "The matrix" but in a different aspect. The idea of a world inside a world resembles the idea of a dream inside a dream of "Nolan's Inception". The movie starts with scenes of 1937 life and they did a good job showing how the life was at that time. Then events follow and we see the murder of "Hannon Fuller" till it's revealed at the end who is the killer, which is a good thing that everything is explained.I liked the director's vision of keeping all the scenes in the computer world dark and dim, while after being in real life it became bright again. But i didn't like the green laser effects which look very cheap.The choosing of "Craig Bierko" to play the main role was not really successful with his blunt face, surprised eyes all the time and cold acting.Finally, it's a good ambitious movie that want to deliver an idea with little spices of Sci-Fi but not to "The matrix" level. It's not that much a thriller movie which will keep your eyes freezed on the screen as it may get you bored at some points.
nikhilshah-21701 this movie has a nice start with a mysterious death of an old man who had time traveled and went inside someone else mind from the past with same characters tics as his. but the concept of the time travel not that believable, hacking into someones mind and whole stimulation of the world but most absurd thing was showing the end of the world which is barricaded by the government without any surveillance and at the end showing the origin of all the living creatures and other tangible things in form of computer stimulation form and their mind working as some semi conductor chip which doesn't makes sense. but as the story goes on it will acquire your interest especially in the part where you know about that there is another world who also know about time travel and they are even superior to them since they can hack the mind of the protagonist and made him to kill that old man who came to know about them. that old man was very good friend of the protagonist so he wanted to tell him about it but was killed. so before that he left a note for a protagonist and expected that he will too come in past in order to enquire about real reason of his death. movie becomes more interesting when the girl who came from future to help them and tell them about another world. as his husband killing people abominably just for fun and has can control the mind of protagonist. overall the movie has a good thrilling story with romantic ending. but some parts of the movies are pretty much new but were very predictable.
emailuser-25123 Great movie about computers and with the Porsche with Craig Bierko, who I haven't known of him in any other film. Which means he's a great actor in which deserves to be placed in the spotlight. This movie is amazing, The Thirteenth Floor.Creation in the name of love and passion. Any ETA is possible when passion is involved. Envision this epic film and it will drive your creativity beyond your wildest dreams. With the Sound-Design team of Cloverfield because they movie had the best sound-design ever next to Jurassic Park by Steven Spielberg. Who certainly has exactly the director skills to approach and complete a masterpiece of such a project.New movie to begin by production by the 30th of June 2017, where Walt Disney will begin the story and casting. Which will be written by perfection by the end of 2017. In which will film for as long as they need and release by the end of 2018.How about a movie where he owns a Porsche 959 actually this time. Souped up and with a crackly powerful exhaust/ intake system. Where he owns a virtual reality system, in which his company that he designed is on the verge of amazing things.Worlds of total bliss and fantasy and wonder. Like a heavenly wizard of oz like world. Where the reality of the real world is nothing like the worlds in which he creates. Where he has an amazing lover with children and life in his virtual world is total bliss. Where he creates as he walks through his world and creates and controls in his world like a wizard. Creating mountains and streams and villages of wonderful people and animals. Like an Action/ Adventure/ Comedy/ Family movie. Where he's a cool dude living a harsh life in reality, where he spends most of his time in the reality simulator. Where he is in love with his lover and she's crazy super amazing and beautiful as ever. She's the cute redhead from Wedding Crasher's. Where it's a family adventure through wonderland in contrast to the reality beyond what he has created. Which really blows your mind the difference between the two worlds. Where they both have lots of fun with each other and he & her are really devious and they are in such an intense loving relationship. They are lovers that only know of love and nothing will break their love for each other. Unlike binding a legal contract with marriage, in their hearts they know they will love each other forever and forever. Nothing will every separate their family apart ever. Just to advocate True Love goes beyond a legal binding contract, it's an intense spiritual bond between a man, a woman, and their beautiful children forever and always. Love Everlasting. The plot is he, Craig Bierko wakes up in his bed with all his 3 children (todler's) with his lover (the cute redhead from Wedding Crasher's). Where it's straight away a fun adventure in a harsh world where he Craig Bierko wants to live in a perfect world for his family. In which they all safely are able to spend years in while in a hibernation state in which is non-fictional are far as bodily functions goes (they are fine forever in the reality simulator). Where they visit a water park and his lover has an incredible swimsuit that is so gorgeous and sexy, even Craig Bierko is constantly like "Wow she's hot". Where one of their children was almost lost by sliding off a water slide and falling into nets specially designed to these rare incidents. It upset his whole family so much, that he Craig Bierko went to work on a fantasy world of wonder and majesty in which no such things could ever take place. In which time his whole family enters the simulator and lives for 8 years in the simulator after first testing for an hour or 2 at first just to see if everyone loves it. Once the 8 years takes place they go through all kinds of amazing adventures in a wonderful world of bliss, love, and happiness. With a Wizard Of Oz-like world yet way cooler with space ships and flight. As well as high speed driving for fun all over his world he created for his family. To visit portions of dinosaurs, and theme parks just like in the real world but free and totally safe. He can also create his own theme park in which is totally unreal with his hands and mind like a wizard of might and magic.Finally the 8 years is over and they loved it so much. He gets to work on a indefinite solution to live in his world. From which will line up perfectly a sequel among many more.Epic film making with long slow wide aspect film of light and blissful music by John Williams. Amazing movie by the way, The Thirteenth Floor.
begob Scientist testing a virtual reality set in 1930s California is murdered before he can reveal a cataclysmic secret to his employee in the 1990s.Fairly tame sci-fi. The plot is convoluted, like any good noir, but they didn't really bring it off. Mistake to add a light-hearted element in the early part, which drained the menace out of the story. And when the menace came back on we switched villains.Acting was good, especially the camp-thug barman who keeps the letter.Interesting to see the ultimate optimism, whereas its contemporary The Matrix was the opposite. These days we've got Interstellar telling us technology will deliver a sparkling future, even as neoliberal corporations are taking over the world.
