Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Marguerite Ward The most original aspect of this film is the inclusion of animation which adds a fourth set of relationships to the three relationships in the live action part of the film. This fourth couple revolves around trust and leads one of the characters who is following the animated story, to change his own attitude to life. That's original. For all the characters, the world is ruled by their subconscious,something that is missed by most filmmakers today. This film is closer to something by Bunuel or Bergman. All the characters think they know what is happening to them, but they don't. Beautifully filmed in New York, this movie was a joy to watch and think about.

kvosbeck This film will challenge you. It has a totally innovative structure, more like a song, with verse-chorus-verse then a regular, boring Hollywood film structure.It delves into the lives of 6 interconnected New Yorkers. And it creates a bit of a rubick's cube game that it is up to the viewer to figure out. Music is AMAZING. Performances, especially Trieste Kelly Dunn and Macenzie Davis are off the charts. The video game story line is creepy and weird. It's almost like a David Lynch film. You hear the character as he is playing the game too. That is another way the director is playing with the audience's perspective.But again, you have to use your brain with this one. Its a romantic comedy, essentially, but its not Failure to Launch or 10 Things I Hate about You. It asks the viewer to participate in the creative act. It asks the viewer to make connections and be open to a different kind of structure. A lot of people won't be up for this, they would rather have corny jokes and recycled plot lines. Easy laughs and obvious plot twists. Then go watch Operation Dumbo Drop.It's a lyrical piece, haunting, but a brain is required to enjoy!

marcgaudioso Plato's Reality Machine is a film about gamers and the game of life. It is about young singles, living in New York, trying to define themselves and connect with each other, but also about their avatars, their ideal selves, fighting for survival, forming alliances and deciding whether to betray their allies before they are betrayed. It is at one moment dark and intense, and at next, light, funny and sexy. At several places, as in the stylish sequence in the strip club, it is all these things at once. At first the game world appears to be typically dark and futuristic, but even there real human emotion and humor shine through. The real world locations are clearly New York, but not the same tired ones you've seen over and over. The performances are spot on. The soundtrack is cutting edge. Do yourself a favor and log in!

xackery Plato's Reality Machine pulls off what no other indie film has ever attempted - it explores modern issues of self-identity while weaving metaphoric video game world to explore the character's inner-lives. The cast is stellar and includes Trieste Kelly Dunn (Star of Showtime's 'Banshee'). The performances are powerful. Sorenson's direction is dead-on and his story-telling is economical and innovative. See this film and prepare yourself for a truly amazing indie film treasure. Wouldn't be surprised if this movie finds a big following with Machinima fans as well.
