Adaption of a novel of a seemingly imaginative future world! Not a bad watch!
You may look forward to:
- It definitely instils some thought process in your mind into a debate, whether a world like shown in the movie, much controlled is good for humanity or suppressing natural human behavior is a sin! Thats the only take home out of the movie, which is the concept!
- All the actors, lead or support enacted as much given to them to their best!
The dampeners you should be aware of:
- I am sure the novel would have carried many things in much more detail. Detail felt missing, things were just touched from the top and let go. It fails to create the necessary impact on you!
- There has to be a reason why the world as we know today,didn't exist in the movie! A major catastrophic event something, which was never told or shown, the entire mystery around 'Elsewhere' just fizzed out while waiting till the end to be discovered!
My Rating: 2.5/5
