The first must-see film of the year.
Raymond Sierra
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Edwin
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Darin
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

I watch a lot of movies, but none of them have ever actually proved painful. Sometimes a bad movie can be fun to watch because it is cheezy or unintentionally funny. This movie isn't like that.This movie is below poor. It is unwatchable. I lasted about ten minutes before I was seized with an unholy urge to grab a fork and tear out my own eyes to avoid watching it for even another second. Fortunately there was no fork around.I began screaming my most closely guarded secrets at the screen because I became convinced that some unseen interrogator was attempting to extract information from me by forcing me to watch this unendurable piece of "art". Fortunately I had a moment of lucidity and was able to stop the movie before being driven insane.This movie is not "trippy", there are no "hidden meanings" in it. There is no "intellectual" value to it in any way, shape of form. It is just a mind-numbing mess that may pull a suicidal reaction from you.

I ended up watching it twice actually. I watched it last night then this morning, and ordered the DVD from Amazon here in UK. I thought it was going to be a weird movie from the start but I had no idea how weird. It's not like anything I've seen before and my boyfriend loves cult movies and obscure art films. This is weirder an dare I say more original. It's obviously small budget and also obvious that the director and actors and all made it their own weird way. But I've never seen anything that played with the feeling and mood of reality TV like this did. It was like taking shows like Intervention and Big Brother and putting them on acid or something. Also it's like an anti-drug movie but the movie itself feels like a drug. I thought I was hallucinating parts of it when it was playing on the computer. Now mind you I did only see it on our Mac computer at home and not in a theatre or DVD but I will when I get it. I think some people will for sure hate this movie expecting anything normal or plot driven like a Hollywood film. This is totally art-house weirdness. It's like a documentary but it's not. It's like a J-Horror film, but it's not. It's definitely a mystery and sci fi. I'd say it's like taking The Secret and Pi and Slacker and The Wall and The Blair Witch Project and making them into one movie. Now that's effin weird! Can't wait to trip out to it with friends on telly.

This film is like old time radio meets art-house... It is a mind trip and a seamless experimental bit of madness!!! Probably one of the first noise films with an actual plot. Ten people did not sit in a room and try to discuss whether or not you would like this film, but the makers probably made it for themselves. If you don't get the film you probably get board with yourself a lot or are indoctrinated into the stereotypical BS Hollywood advertisement film. It is not a point A to point B Mary Kate and Ashley film, but a film that asks the viewer to put themselves into a situation that is not clearly defined. The special effects are non traditional and the music is very transcendental. Ramsi Abed may be a bit of an Egoist in some of the scenes asking a lot of the audience's patience, but any film maker should be... This is not a film for the weak minded.

I managed to sit through about 15 minutes of this film with my partner before scanning through it to see whether anything even remotely interesting happens! It appears to be an extremely low budget film with special effects straight out of ghost or early superman films, with locations as interesting as my friends couch! As for the storyline, the majority of what i saw was 5 minutes each of watching people having phone conversations with very little dialogue at all and the acting, well, it reminded me of a bad porn film! Even from just scanning through 'in a spiral state', I felt 'mind-numbed'!! I've never commented on here before but this film inspired me to register in order to warn others not to waste their time and money!!!
