- Daniel GustavssonOctober 12, 2024Intriguing movie for sure. It's just some people in a house for the whole duration but it works very well. The concept of this is very fascinating, however it lacks a little bit in the technical department. The acting can be rough. It kind of leaves you wondering and thinking about possibilities at the end. The funny thing is that there exist a sequel to this, which has the funniest explanation to all this and completely destroys this movie. If you treasure this movie then I recommend you skip the sequel.
- stuhannafordApril 22, 2026Intriguing, but felt far more like a history/theology/science lecture and discussion than anything else. There's no excitement so to speak, you're just left waiting for the climax, the payoff, but it's no big bang, more a muted 'a ha'. It raises questions that you've probably already been posed or thought about, and packages it all into one nice, neat, convenient tale. On the plus side, it's not overly judgemental and there's no real flag planting, just a discussion amongst friends in essense. I wouldn't rush to see it again, but it's interesting enough.
- raviagarwal652August 22, 2025Absolutely fantastic man what a storytelling for a sci-fi movie I mean let's be real there was nothing sci-fi about it was like reading a book an audio book i could literally imagine some of the stuff he said and I think that's what the movie wanted for us. It took us through highs and lows and then ended on a high. Amazing 10/10 underrated gem in my opinion.
- IrisMarch 1, 2026Fucking kill me— i swear to god jerome. When I find you in hell i will actually legit ughhh— my dumb ass thought, oh it seems like a cute movie! Lemme watch it at 1 a.m. little did I know, I'm about to have a midlife crisis, and fun thing about that? I'm fucking 14— honestly should've just stuck to cartoons atp. now I'm spiralling because I think that sandy is also an immortal, because of welp everything she does in the movie, is John really lying or is he just trying to protect everyone's feelings, why tf did sandy kiss dan. and help me god I need some of that alcohol too. 5/5, destroyed me emotionally, mentally and would've physically too if our boi jerome was still alive because oh I'm so fucking convinced he is the man he portrays john to be. I mean come on man. Someone get me chocolate milk and cookies.
