alien_conceptsays...This looks like something I definitely wanna see
siftbotsays...Moving this video to kronosposeidon's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
Stormsingersays...I really need to get some more sifts, so I can promote other people's videos. This one truly deserves it, too. Ah well, maybe someone will notice it in the recent comments and promote it for me. If so, thanks in advance.
Just finished watching this movie, and I'm extremely impressed. The flick reminds me of Dark City, Lady in the Water, Moon, and even The Dark Tower series by Steven King, although I couldn't say why. It doesn't really have any particular resemblance to any of those, except maybe for the well executed low-budget special effects (which did seem reminiscent of Dark City).
The best part is the world they created...a world hidden just under the flesh of our own, unseen by any of us, yet totally convincing and believable (while the movie was playing anyway). This is the kind of world-building that so many darker films have tried (thinking Underworld and similar flicks), but this time they actually succeeded.
laurasays...*promote by order of Stormsinger
siftbotsays...Promoting this video back to the front page; last published Tuesday, June 9th, 2009 10:46pm PDT - promote requested by laura.
dystopianfuturetodaysays...I gave this a shot after seeing an interesting clip on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RAxydsJCFA), but shut it off after about 20 minutes.
dagsays...Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)
That piano riff is so overused. The acting in the clip also sounded a bit weak.
Djevelsays...It was an interesting story, but the pacing of the movie was rather plodding and the acting was a little weak throughout the entire thing which really drug the movie out.
I think I was more impressed by the movie in afterthought than I was during the viewing of it.
andybesysays...I really enjoyed this movie, for me it was certainly one of the better independent films of 2009. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to fans of fantasy movies, although it's probably not for everyone.
There are times when it's apparent it's an indy film, but for the most part the movie achieves high production values. At no point did the acting make me cringe as so many badly made indy and B movies do. Those I simply can't watch.
Stormsinger is quite right when he talks about world building, and about the world co-existing 'just under the skin' of the real world we all live in. In this respect it reminded me of Neil Gaiman and his book Neverwhere and similar.
If you like the sort of fantasy movie which subtly suggests reality is not quite what it seems, that there is magic just under the surface if we could only see it, then this may be one you want to see.
There's certainly an element of the surreal to the movie, so I can see how it's reminded others of similarly surreal flicks, but this is not dystopian sci-fi, it's really more for fantasy fans that sci-fi buffs.
