It starts as interesting-looking sci-fi, but for a long time it doesn't know what it wants to say and what comes out of it raises a lot of questions. On the other hand, it's a very original concept. Sang-ho Yeon can make a nice film. Decent action, the visual effects inferno at the end and the mother-daughter scenes have something to them (the mini-twist concerning the little doll is downright cruel). The bleak reality, where you may not die, but they can make a sex fiend or a janitor out of you, begs for a sequel from civilian life. Hyeon-joo Kim is brilliant. ()
It has everything from RoboCop to Ex Machina to Edge of Tomorrow, and it is solidly made, but the action-packed finale kind of killed the main idea. ()
