While this film has an interesting premise, and a good marketing and licensing budget...
WHO thought the color grading was ready for release?
On an HDR UHD television this is completely washed out! If they had reduced the brightness and kept the contrast they would have a more visually interesting film! I don't understand the obsession some filmmakers have with either increased frame rates or washed out bright colors or both! I want movies to look like professionally produced movies on film, not cheap television video! Not cheaply produced daytime soaps!
This film had potential but it was totally washed out colorwise!
For an example of a digital low-budget film with REAL professional brightness, contrast, and creative cinematography, check out "Gaia" (2021).
Low budget or not, want to look like a real movie? Color grade your film to match Gaia, or go home!
Seriously!
