Audience Member Very nice treatment of the old "mutant children, next generation of humanity" sci-fi standard. Based on a Strugatsky novel. Good intro to Lopushansky, but not nearly as good as his others. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member May not be very easy to follow, but is, ultimately authentic and compelling because it addresses real and honest questions. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member The film had no budget to speak of, and yet it is moving and dreamlike in parts. Often playing as a tribute to Tarkovsky, with much dripping water,shakuhachi music and frames full of abandonment (his film from Strugatsky book Roadside Picnic called Stalker, is my favourite film). The message is delivered on many levels, so many you don't know it until the film is over. Not the typical kind of film I'd give a 9 to, but this virtually unseen movie deserves it. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member i've heard this would be similar to stalker...it's not, except at a very shallow level.the imagery is nice,sounds also nice, overall quite interesting if you're into SF excuses for deeper thoughts... Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the greatest films I've ever seen Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member i really liked this, maybe could've been a bit longer, it sort of skims over a lot of stuff.
