"I just love when I find a great movie that seemed to fly into my radar for some reason. This film was great. I like this sci-fi drama, with the plot of mental perception of reality and brain altering. The acting was very good, and the pace of the movie was just perfect."

"The concept for this movie is an excellent one, the problem lies in the execution. The opportunity was there to basically do anything they wanted in the time compressed VR "otherlife" and the writers squandered it. Maybe there were budget restrictions, I don't know, but this movie could have been so much more. It could have been even better than Inception, it's a shame. Rated this movie on face value... 5.5/10"
