Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Ofer Bar I saw this movie with couple of friends, after reading it was compared to Memento. Well, it is not. Actually, it's a pretty bad movie. Acting is terrible, and the script does not make sense. I really didn't understand what the hell the writer and director was trying to say here. I have a feeling he doesn't either :)The idea of parallel universes and exchanging lives has been extensively used in movies, and this movie does not bring any new message.I don't want to waste any more time ranting about it. Just to warn potential viewers to skip this one and watch something else.
herb_wms Very good acting and a very good script. I'd say an excellent script except for one blaring omission...What triggered the switch? And the fact we were twenty minutes into the movie before the switch occurred. The switch should have occurred at least 3 minutes earlier and needed something to trigger it. Just happening isn't really acceptable in Hollywood or Indiewood. It causes you to stop watching and enjoying and start asking "what the heck's going on here" and it's not a what the heck in a good sense but a distracting sense. The trigger could have been as simple as a more heated debate with his mother, an overdose on a psychotropic drug, (he was seeing a shrink). The absence of cause drew as much attention as the presence of a clown selling jewelry would have. It broke the moment, then it took several minutes to get back into the movie.Other than that one oopses the rest of the movie was great. The interplay between the two realities was outstanding and the message "Walk a mile in my shoes" was very potent. The Violent world was implied and did not demand on an over abundance of death and mayhem to instill a sense of danger. It worked very well. As did the limited nudity…enough but not too much.Recommended viewing.
justgotothemovies-1 I saw this at Santa Barbara's film festival and was very surprised. Kind of like Memento but in a way more fascinating. Not entirely sure it all made sense, but it could just be me. But, I AM sure that Sam Trammel is very hot and has real star quality. FAscinating movie.
agentk I saw this at the Stony Brook Film Festival on Long Island New York and was generally pleased with it. It split first place in the Jury Awards there and made a close run for Audience Choice as well.It takes two characters and basically switches them, giving each a glimpse into the possibilities of parallel existances. Derrick,a spoiled upper crust New Yorker, and Zane, a street thug, are quite opposite but somehow make the mind switch and wind up making do in each other's lives. My main problem with the film was that there was no mechanism for the switch. It was nicely filmed and nicely acted with each of the personalities being likeable and despicable in appropriate doses. The filming of the duality of parallel worlds was quite creative.
