What a fantastic movie. And I heard nothing about it anywhere until I read the small synopsis in the local newspaper. Edge of your seat time: 70%. Gasps: 23. Sinking feelings: 8. Squinting eyes shut: 2.
It defies explanation. It's a new twist on an old science fiction theory, and is also loosely adapted from the book of the same name by P. D. James (which I haven't read).
It has a 9 1/5 minute long shot (no breaks) during the most violent and brutal part of the film. That must have taken months to set up.
Even if you don't like the story, or the violence, or futuristic science fiction, you have to love this film for it's purity to the most ideal film. You could almost imagine hearing during production NOTHING that resembles, "We can't do that" be it sets, shots, acting, props, explosions, and raw emotion.
Cancel your Netflix subscription, if you have to, for the money to see this movie.
