The reviews and rating make no sense. Looks like people saw the title and were expecting something else entirely, probably something along the lines of the other movie by the same title. Well, no it's not that. It's sci-fi and like the vast majority of sci-fi, it's lower budget. But unlike most sci-fi, this movie doesn't take place in two rooms with 3 characters. The script here is much more ambitious. It was aiming for something along the lines of The Arrival. But there was no financial backing evidently, no billion-dollar effects, no "A" list cast. There are some issues with sound, effects, the main character could have benefited from a different casting. But it the story here that matters, and the story is good and interesting. It slowly works toward what we expect to be an interesting resolution. And it delivers. Plenty of movies fall flat at the end. Here the ending is satisfying and resolves the suspense created. Overall a good effort. The writer/director has a bright future.
