Benjamin Cleary, an Oscar winner for his short film Stutterer, wrote the screenplay and is directing the pic. Produced by Apple Studios, Anonymous Content and Concordia Studio, it’s described as a genre-bending drama set in the near future that explores how far someone will go, and how much they’ll sacrifice, to make a happier life for the people they love.

this was decent. mahershala is really good in it and I like the concept and a lot of the ideas that the film showcases but overall I just felt it didn't really do too much with it. and maybe that wasn't the story Cleary was trying to tell but I do feel like there was potential for something more.

What a movie.

this film is incredible, got to ask cleary some questions after as well

WORTH IT FOR THE BIG SCREEN

Wow. I’m blown away. Why are people not talking about this?

Ali & Naomie sounds like a legendary pair, how’re they in this?

Outstanding imo - Ali especially. I’ve seen a lot of mixed reviews but I personally thought it was fantastic. Cinematography was so beautiful

I like the movie for them mostly, great performances, the rest of the cast is kinda just there & I feel like they don’t push the premise as far as it has potential to go so it drags at times, still was compelling

They’re good, I’m not that big of a fan of Naomie (didn’t like her performance in Moonlight that much) but she’s very good in this. All the characters are very likeable

phenomenal movie. loved every second

Cried like 5 times 😭

Loved this

Real talk lol

great film

Need to watch this

good film

Interesting movie. I was sort of unsatisfied by the ending, I felt like everything was building up to a climax / twist / shocking moment which never really happened. That's fine in the end, it just kind of took me off guard the way it ended.

Felt the same way

I need to check this out.

not gonna lie I was expecting that Black Mirror type of sick twist or smth.
yeah that ending was abrupt but anyways, everything with Mahershala Ali in my book is a certain quality so i enjoyed it

7/10

and btw soundtrack makes this movie for what it is
absolutely perfect selection
