Strange and fun to watch movie IMHO.


I admit the ending is over the top, but the fun of getting there is what makes the movie enjoyable to watch. The group brainwash/multilevel brainwash theme may not be original, but the style is quirky enough to pull me in. Also some of the visuals are impressive and creative for a low budget film.

Like Vincenzo Natali's other films, this is a cult film. Some will love and it and many will not like it. I would just like to take this moment to thank Mr. Natali for having the guts to take chances and be different.

I agree. I enjoyed Cube and Splice for their visual style and wicked sense of humour, and this didn't disappoint. It was very nicely shot and edited, and the performances were pitched just right. I particularly loved the realisation of the Vault. It will be really interesting to see what Natali does with Neuromancer.

'Odd'. But yes, has a certain quality, charm and finesse to it. I must watch again.
