Disturbing yet enthralling
Hadrina
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Stephan Hammond
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

This is a fascinating film that is difficult to classify: part thriller, part mystery, part reality show, and part sci/fi. It's a very busy movie, but all components I found interesting. Basically, the plot is about these kids who have grown up, literally, on a reality show and were much loved by the country; now, as adults in the year 2030, one of the participants appears to have died, left alone and untreated in an overcrowded and understaffed hospital after being shot. Or was he? Could it have been a simple medical oversight because he was uninsured? Or was he murdered because of something he knew? The best part of this movie is that we are shown in a quite realistic fashion what ANY country could be like in 2030- where the divide between the haves and have-nots has gotten so wide that there are two kinds of hospitals; one for people with money and one for people who don't have money. A great commentary on where our world is heading, disguised as an intriguing mystery.
