Following a worldwide event known as The Reset, humanity rebuilds a society with aging mechanics where gleaming technology once stood. Surveillance now the status quo, society is slowly putting its shattered pieces back together under a watchful eye. After a friend’s suicide leaves behind a mysterious computer drive, a young computer prodigy and a shadowy hacker join together to decipher the clues that he’s left behind. The youthful creators of Jackrabbit have successfully constructed a world, which we haven’t previously seen on film. Mixing retro production design with slick storytelling, they deliver a cinematic dissonance that will result in a shock to the senses.

Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
verepaine This film may have a slow pace, but there is really a lot happening.I enjoyed this movie and think it can entertain people across multiple genres.But when I went to the website and played the companion games; I think that earned this another star or two!
JaynaB This film achieves a lot with limited sets, low tech, and a handful of unknown actors.The dystopian mood is well-maintained through not only the soundtrack but with camera angles, colour palette and lighting; all of these speak to both technical skill and consistency of directorial vision.The lead characters are bare-bones but not stereotypical. They appear genuinely vulnerable, in keeping with their surroundings.The plot is not unique - self-serving and ostensibly socially-protective corporation versus the ordinary man - but the psychological aspects are well done.There are moral choices to be made.A surprisingly good low-budget indie SF film.
in1984 8.1 of 10. As science fiction or cyberpunk, this would have been better timed during the late 1980s or early 1990s. Nonetheless, it's an entertaining and insightful look at one possibility if the wi-fi and other elements that enable current computer and mobile phone technology no longer function.The world is essentially now less the mobile tech and massive media structure. Broadcasting is limited to radio-like communication and there remains a slow, phone modem like Internet.Beyond that it's essentially another variation of a smart but naive young adult driven by success discovering himself and the world. Despite the lack of major studio money and actors, it is well cast and acted enough not to get in the way of the film's flow.
murtazakhan-85434 Watched the screening last in Texas Theater with Writers and Director. Carleton Ranney is very talented and has lot of potential. The movie has a very thrilling premise and at points it shows directional excellence. Music score is pretty kick ass, very engaging and goes completely in sync with situation. After the movie Carleton Ranney and Destin Douglas answered the questions and described the writing and direction process. This type of talent should be supported and encouraged. The movie has a very edgy feelings. It is lot better than other indie thrillers. It has repeat value as you will discover something new during next watch. Overall a very entertaining and engaging film. Would specially appeal to young moviegoers. Strong acting specially by Ian Christopher Noel .
