Before watching this I briefly looked at reviews and saw they were completely all over the place so I had no idea what to expect. The good? Not much. Frieda Pinto is extremely easy on the eyes. The cast is a talented group of actors, and the cinematography made me "believe" the dystopian future was "real". The bad? Everything else. The cast, while talented, is a complete waste. Most of the time spent by the leads is spent literally staring at each other, with little / no dialogue. Does this portray deep meaning and emotion, or a lazy screenwriter? Honestly I bet this film has 3-5 pages of conversation, in total. Speaking of wasted actors, “Hi Chandler Riggs!” I hope we got a decent check for the 12 seconds of screen time he had, and probably doesn’t say a complete sentence the entire film. As for the plot? Sad stuff happens. I really tried getting into it, but the lack of dialogue and plot pacing left me wanting. There was no need to chop up the timeline as it was, it just makes the final reveal all the more confusing. Probably the most anti-climatic climax I’ve seen in recent memory. It could’ve been so much more!
