rockit t This hit All the notes. Ok, I choked a little but I'm a hard sci-fi guy.I also appreciate the philosophical questions left unanswered... Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review Karen A I never write reviews, but I thought this one deserved one. Simple it may be, yet so many other more "complex" pieces miss their mark. This one didn't! There's a lot about this movie that was bizarre and even made me feel uncomfortable at times, but overall I think it was an amazing original piece that made me feel very much the way old dystopian/ alternate reality movies from the mid and late 1980s did! Gritty, dirty, and punk rock and not at all the type of dystopian world you would not want to live in, even if you were at the top of the heap; Mixed with an epic rock opera! I believe this movie has the makings of a true cult classic. Someone said the songs were forgettable, but the performances were not (they were amazing) and I think that's probably a fair assessment. It's supposed to be part of the point -reconnecting through music and love and the ability to embrace humanity. Which is something that in this dystopian world has truly been lost. People have given into not only their worst natures, but their worst habits of consumption. Whether it be the ruthless exploitation of their fellow neighbor, or trash TV or delighting in the misery and mutilation of others. This society barely merits the title and has nothing left except to be consumed by its worst nature! The entire point of odessa's story is to give them back the memory of their humanity, love, and even hope, and that they can aspire to something greater. Not just the dregs of the worst that humanity and society has to offer. I even loved her and her true love's ending, because it's not what we'd expect in an epic hero story, but it' still gave them the happy and peaceful ending that they deserved. In one form or another. I wish it had gotten more promotion- I just stumbled upon it by chance. I truly believe it'll become a cult classic one day soon! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/11/25 Full Review Trevor S A rock opera harkening back to the days of “Rocky Horror “ and “Flash Gordon” In a world lost to one man’s greed and ego exacerbated by control of the media that has filled the mind of followers with poison. One person possesses the ability to save the world with love. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/03/25 Full Review Christian o Has a message people may not quite understand The songs or audio tracks in the film are amazing People really have short attention span now at days Imma give it a 3.5 it's really good Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review Sarah C The biggest miss is the music is forgetable. However, the performances are great. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/11/25 Full Review Eric M While this movie may not be for everyone, it certainly struck a chord (pun intended) with me. As a lover of all things 80s, the film resonated deeply, and the music was easily a top 10 soundtrack for me. While the movie was a bit weird and perhaps dragged slightly in spots, I greatly enjoyed it. Sadie Sink shows she's capable of easily carrying a movie, and her vocals are outstanding.
