I only watched this film out of respect for Sonequa Martin-Green, as I find her performance in the new Star Trek Discovery series to be fantastic. I wanted to simply explore more of her work.

That said, let me warn you, this is a bad film. It's not so bad as to be good like 'The Room'. It's just not good. I don't base my criticism on the low budget, i love shoe-string sci-fi if there is a good story. Doctor Who, early Star Trek, Blake's 7, and many more, it's great if the stories are relatable.

Now, I don't know who or how this film was made, but it feels like a student film project (and might actually be one), so it deserves some respect on that level.

Sonequa's acting talent shines through despite all of the obstacles. The other actors also do pretty well. They just had a crappy script to work with, and probably less than top notch direction. It's hard as an actor to throw their heart into their work when a project pretty clearly won't succeed, but she manages pretty well.

-- If you're a student of the film industry - watch this for educational purposes.
-- If you are just part of the audience, stay away.

@callmetrimtab LOL, me too! No, I was curious to see what else she was in. All during Star Trek I was like why is she so familiar. Oh, The walking dead! <br /> <br /> Thanks for the warning. I'm going to skip this one. ;D
