Discontinued

I enjoyed this movie! The premise is intriguing, the acting is good (the main actress does a great job), and the production is perfectly adequate.

There is some light comedy, but also some interesting questions. Recommended for people who enjoy speculative fiction.

I'm actually surprised that more movies have not addressed the questions raised here: what is it all about? Does anything make sense?

I am also intrigued by the hints about the responsibility to simulated life forms, what to do with them, and so on. This movie is punching well above its weight in terms of philosophical questions.

"Discontinued" is a thought-provoking sci-fi film that raises intriguing questions about the nature of reality. Ashley Hutchinson delivers a strong performance as Sarah, while Langston Fishburne's portrayal of the guide adds depth to the story. However, the film's classification as a comedy is misleading, as there are very few comedic moments. Furthermore, the lack of special effects may disappoint some viewers. Nonetheless, the plot is well-constructed and keeps the audience engaged. The ambiguous ending leaves room for interpretation, leaving viewers pondering Sarah's ultimate fate. Overall, "Discontinued" is a solid film that is worth watching, despite its flaws. The film's unique concept and strong performances make it an intriguing addition to the sci-fi genre.

This was a welcome entry to the catalogue of "explore a philosophical issue by introducing a scenario, and then have the main character walk around getting different people's perspectives" indie films. The worst parts were the attempts at comedy, to be frank, but the movie did eventually abandon the silliness.

Most of the acting was very amateur, which was why a lot of the comedy felt so stiff. Picardo, Hutchinson, and Fishburne carried the show, and this Bonini guy was pretty good too (the character isn't his fault).

For a very limited movie I was impressed. It held my interest and even stimulated my brain. Worth a watch.

It's a decent idea, but this movie is extremely slow and not thought provoking at all. It had a lot of potential. The acting and music selection was not great, cinematography is fine, but in terms of storyline? Abysmal. Throughout the entire movie, I felt as if I was watching a movie produced by a highschool movie production team as an assignment. The realism felt completely off and is not at all how you would expect humans would respond, in fact I think the majority would chose to stay. Each to their own, I appreciate everyone has their own opinion, but it takes a lot for me to skip through a movie. I wanted it to get better, but 3/10 I stand by what I said, the movie is less thought provoking than these reviews.

The premise is somewhat intriguing and this is probably the only good thing i can write about this. Obviously it's low budget but the problem is with the execution of their idea and not the acting or the money.

In reality the people's reaction would be much more erratic. There would be chaos and all types of violent behavior.

The ending suggests that it doesn't matter what type of person you are and how you lived your life. Sadly, this anti-moral message is quite popular nowadays. I wonder why.

Summary: despite all these it's worth a watch just don't expect too much. Also, this is not a comedy.
