This movie starts in the middle with a confusing scene at a wrestling match. Then, the writers slowly piece the film together by exposing each of the main characters’ backstories. Then, they all converge at the end with one breathtaking moment. The director used practical lighting for most of the scenes and added intense action to break up the lulls. The action has great graphics and is shot with precision. However, the old conspiracy footage is laughable. Also, the director captures the childhood flashback in an odd manner. The movie ends on one word that will make you yell at the screen because it doesn’t feel incomplete. Viewers will wait for a post-credit scene that never comes. While this film has an intriguing concept, it’s the storytelling that makes it unique, not the story itself. This film is great in theaters, but you won’t have the urge to watch it a second time.

I give it 3.5 out of 5 stars

I know you too – Daniel

Listen – Margaret

Does God love us – Jane

History doesn’t have a reset key – Noah

That’s you. You got the ball – Hugo
