Powerful

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

4/10 is the most I can award to this very confused and confusing sci-fi film. I don't believe either Johnny Depp or Morgan Freeman was suited to this picture. The special effects were clever and amusing, though vastly overdone. The ending left too many questions UNanswered. The movie was too long, dragged out. NOT recommended.

I don't exactly know why but I feel like the movie was kind of predictable, not in the scence that it was boring but in the scence that it felt like I'd already seen the same film a couple of times.Saying this movie had potential is an understatenebt, just by reading the synopsis I knew I'd love this film, but I didn't. Maybe they played it too safe and ended up with an Okey film, I mean there is nothing really bad about the movie, but it feels so average, specially after watching the trailer.

Enjoyed this, marking it up for originality in the day of reboots and part 5 franchise films. Not without its faults though as we follow Johnny Depp as an AI expert whose consciousness is transferred into a computer. As his awareness goes viral he becomes unstoppable, embedding every computer and electrical system on the planet.On the downside this dragged at times and all the characters felt a bit flat. Depp and his wife are meant to convey this great love, I never felt it. And with his radiation sickness/fatal poisoning he just sort of went with it, no real fear or anger. The bad guys also lacked motivation or it wasn't conveyed to the viewer, just that technology is well... bad. Actually a lot of this movie is vague.I'm also just realizing that I'm not even sure who the main character is supposed to be here. Depp is in the movie (in the flesh) for only about 15 minutes and then he disappears into the background of scenes as a computer program, making it hard to relate to him. His wife (Rebecca Hall) is so selfish, stupid and blunt that it's impossible to like her. It also isn't Paul Bettany, he's a prisoner through most of the film and when he's not, the events that are happening are more or less out of his control. Morgan Freeman and Cillian Murphy are just there, without anything noteworthy to add. As a whole I wouldn't say it was great movie.

OK, this movie has a decent idea, man is dying, uploads his consciousness onto a computer, then to the internet, after a couple of years and a new mega facility built, he is so advanced to the point of curing people and linking them to a collective cyborg consciousness. OK, I believe the idea is decent, but I also believe it's been done before. So, the only thing that could save this would be the acting. We'll the acting sucks. We have Johnny Depp as Will Caster, what the hell is up with that stupid mustache and little goatee? Is this a pirate movie? Beyond that, his acting is boring, his voice sucks, his dialogue is crap. He sucks in this movie. Rebecca Hall as Evelyn Caste as Will's wife is below par mediocre, dialogue sucks, unintelligent, always has a concerned look, that's it. Yeah, she loves Will, but give me a break, this did not come across well. Paul Bettany as Max Waters, best actor here, but overall mediocre, not his fault, the dialogue is trash all the way. Kate Mara as Bree, who the hell thought she was a good, or even a competent actress? That stupid blond wig – WTF! Those stupid facial expressions. Morgan Freeman as Joseph Tagger, wasted in another crappy mediocre supporting role. He should retire or only take a leading role. Enough with this nonsense. Everybody else in this film is just there to fill in the holes. So, the acting is garbage, the dialogue is boring, the story is mediocre. No suspense. No chemistry between the actors. Cliché final battle – crap. And what really got me is the zombie collective. Music is filler. Cinematography was competent. At least we didn't get quick edits – thank god. Again, idea is fine, even though it was stolen from other films. Crap no chemistry acting. Cliché battles and zombies. Are we supposed to feel for the Will and his wife because he sacrificed himself and his wife for his friend Max? Then Max finds them both dead, Will's eyes closing. Where's the drama here? This movie sucks.Please read the critic - 1,2,3 WTF!? (Watch the Film)- They give a timeline, breakdown of WTF is going on in this "film". It takes time to do this. I applaud their effort.
