I don't really know where to start with this review. Not a lot actually happened. This was a slow burning, sci-fi, murder mystery. For a low budget movie with so few cast members, the writer and production crew did a remarkable job of keeping it interesting and very watchable.
Samuel T. Coleridge's poem, "Kubla Khan," plays a prominent part of the script. It puts the idea of a utopian society in our minds which is good, because the image in our minds is all that we are going to see of that society. If you are hoping for flying cars, spaceships, fancy mechanical devices and user interfaces, and lean white skyscrapers made of glass and neon lights, pick another movie.
The script was almost poetic with the choice of language and wording. The descriptive tones were also very well chosen. Another thing that was well done, was the character of the killer. This individual left you feeling that they need to be punished for their crime whilst simultaneously understanding and even sympathising with their reasoning.
I can see this movie being one of the best of the year if you take its budget into account and well worth watching.
