Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

mailmikekang Australia is just not known for sci-fi and this short film breaks that trend completely. I saw it at the cinema on opening night and was amazed by the sheer ambition and technical quality of this project. The acting is also well done, with the leads pulling their roles perfectly. Alittle on the short side in terms of screen time, though totally understandable having to balance out budget and the quality. The CGI was done exceptionally well, perhaps apart from a couple of effect here and there noticeable only due to the fact I viewed in a big screen theater screen but absolutely not enough to distract one from the story and would need to be versed in filmmaking in order to even see it. The film will amaze and emotionally drag you out of your seat. A winner for sure.

kellystacey1980 This brilliant gem of a short film explores one man's journey as he tries to escape his addiction to technology and reconnect with humanity and the natural world.It's a really interesting and important idea for the modern times we live in and anyone who has ever thought technology is taking over our lives will enjoy this film, as will those who like sci-fi.I was lucky enough to view this short at a private industry screening and was struck by Scott Mannion's masterfull direction, interesting and motivated shot design and striking, visionary imagery.Loved the performances of the cast which really helped bring across the meaning intended by the director.To be honest I had never heard of Scott Mannion before Anima, but can't wait to see what he does next - a very Terrance Malick quality to him.I also thought Mike Molloy did a wonderful job with the Cinematography and loved the special effects! A great film that shows just what Australian film is capable of when they get it right. Highly recommend, Kelly.
