The good old style over substance theme goes into play here. Not that the story isn't intriguing at all, it does remind one of a movie called Blade Runner. And that is a compliment to the film Renaissance here of course!!
But the story tries to many things, it's overly complex and most of all, although I hate to say that, the animation does not help. It's a cool idea to make the movie only in black and white, like I said a cool style! But like in real life, where there also is not only "Black & white" a little Grey wouldn't have hurt! So although the unique style is one of it's high points, it's also one of it's downfalls too.
