It took me just about past the midway point of the movie I started to realize it wasn't about Syfy at all. It's about drug addiction, the mentally disabled, and homelessness. The moment I recognized this, I had a better impression of the movie. Having a career in LE in a city I experienced many with those difficulties. It's easy to criticize the homeless or dismiss them, but if you had a better understanding of the issues they're having mentally your feelings would change. And I think this movie did a good job putting the viewer inside the mind of an addict/mentally ill person. I only wish those in charge of the marketing would have done a better job.
With having a better understanding of the movie, the actors did a great job.
I'm pretty confused at the low score and how badly it is being panned by critics.
I thought the acting was pretty good and i was really interested in these characters. Which is where i think some of the issue are found.
I think this film needed to take a step back from the sci-fi elements. They are very sparse but are there enough to hinder the true storyline. If i am being honest i think the whole 2nd act needed retooling. It was like a brick wall that the movie just slammed into. And then it just sort of slogged along. Once again i thought 'oh this is interesting' but then it just like stalled and i sat around thinking what is this movie now. It kind of gets its momentum back in the 3rd act but i think the 1st is where this movie shines.
This movie is also great at visual storytelling. The production design, costuming and make up all work so well. It allows you to understand what the film is trying to say before the film explicitly tells you and i though that was really good.
I honestly think this movie could have been great but it just got its self bogged down with the sci-fi part and trying to trick? the audience.
I think it held its cards too close to its chest but i think the twist is blatantly clear from literally the first scene. This isn't a bad thing at all. I think it would have been better letting us view this world though the lens of us knowing twist from the beginning. I think that would have been a much more interesting and very eye opening character and subject study.
It is quite remarkable in its effort of painting the depths of addiction. Still, maybe its a condition you need to have first hand experience with in order to understand the narrative.
Hopefully time will repair its rating.

- AnecdotesThe numbers Isabel puts into the safe later in the movie are the same numbers on Greg's prescription bottle at the beginning of the movie.
- GaffesAfter Greg takes the yellow gem and the fire engine goes by, the girl across the street in the jogging suit generates three times. This could be bad CGI, an intended effect to show he is high, or a ruse by the director to contribute to his other reality theme.

Isabel Clemens: The thing is that... it's amazing how easy humans can get used to even something spectacular. Most people say, "Ignorance is bliss," but I say... you have to experience the good to appreciate the bad.
Greg Wittle: No, the other way around.
Isabel Clemens: Exactly.
