Paul Magne Haakonsen I will say that this movie had potential, but director and writer Hasraf Dulull seemed to make a wide swing that ended up as an even bigger miss.The storyline built up nicely enough to a certain point where the robotic astronaut was sent through the wormhole, then it just all came undone and the movie went into a stale mode where nothing happened and it seemed pointless from there and to the very ending.The acting in the movie was adequate, although I can't really point at anyone as being more memorable than others. But it was nice to see a cast ensemble of primarily unfamiliar faces performing on the screen.The special effects were good, though they really served little effort to pull up the movie in overall.Not the best of sci-fi movies available, especially taking into consideration that this is a 2017 release. And it is highly doubtful that you will ever watch this movie more than once, if you even get through it the first time that is.

roblukacs Bland preachy save the planet tripe. Another preachy pretend to be intelligent borefest. A film is supposed to be above all entertaining and engaging. This is neither. The characters are flat and undeveloped and generic. The dialogue is in docustyle inteview format which means you dont really get characters that go through any type of arc. I couldnt even tell you the characters names or anything about them because they are undeveloped. When I dont know anything about the characters i dont care about them. When I dont care I dont watch. The dialogue is dry and goes on about how we need to take care of the planet. They drone on with the same loopy soundtrack tune all thru the film. We get visited by aliens that bring us a new planet because we have done such a poor job of maintaining our own. They do this by somehow transporting it thru a wormhole nearby. We decide to send a human in the wormhole. To protect the human we pull its brain and plug it into a robot body. This actually makes for a cool concept that they could have made into a story of its own dealing with the character that went thru with the surgery. But its just another poorly executed plot device to move the borefest forward. If I were to describe this film I would say its Robocop mixed in with contact and the global warming preachyness of World War Z, documentary style. It sucks and anyone who thought it was intellegent and thought provoking is a moron.

SnoopyStyle Gillian LaRoux is a leading manager in the international Space Agency based in London. One day, an anomaly in space appeared over the sky and they name it The Void. Assuming it to be a wormhole, the agency is preparing a secret mission to explore the phenomenon. They use an experimental cyborg project where human brains are implanted into a cybernetic body called Human 2.0.This is Arrival without Denis Villeneuve or 2001 without Kubrick. I don't know anything about writer/director Hasraf Dulull. He seems to have a few interesting ideas and some special effect skills although he has no skills in story telling. This is a movie layout by expositions more than a plot and any character development. First, Dulull introduces Gillian but she goes into the background. Every character does the same thing. Nobody has a personal story. Nobody sticks. It's just as well since these are day players. None of them has great charisma. The narrative is mechanical only to lay out the plot such as there is one. While I like the ideas and final reveal, this needs a story and fleshed out characters.

assspam This was one of the worst things I have ever watched. The audio is bad, the visuals are horrible. The characters are absent. The science is completely missing. There is nothing to be interested in within this movie. No characters to care about. Hardly any story line to follow. Half the movie was just interviewing candidates for a pointless mission that didn't make sense in the first place if these are such powerful aliens that have telepathy anyway. The entire IDEA of this movie is awful. Screw up the planet so that aliens can build us another beyond physics and science. AWFUL. This is an idea NOT worth spreading. Some nutcase on psychedelics or stoned out of his mind must have written and made this movie.
