"Kill switch" boasts superb computer-generated effects and visuals, which, basically, is the only reason why I kept watching it. The apocalypse hitting the Netherlands (of all countries) every now and then produces scenes of great beauty, weirdness or both. However, the movie fails utterly with regard to a crucial element : it does not succeed in explaining its basic premise. It is possible that the narrative was inspired by a scientific concept of genius, or by a novel of rare insight and cleverness, but who's going to know ? Think of a lawyer who has to defend a prominent celebrity accused of manslaughter, who has thought up a dozen thunderingly good defenses, but can't explain or articulate any of them. Or think of a male teenager who, during a wedding feast, meets a woman of stunning beauty and charm, and gets so tongue-tied that he is incapable of any kind of meaningful interaction. ("I don't think we've met before. Are you one of Karen's cousins ?" "I"m.. I'm... Aaaargh.. Arrggl... Butterfly ! I eat kidneys !") Well, the movie is that bad.As if all of this wasn't bad enough, there is also the nervous, choppy, hectic style, which, coupled to gaming aesthetics, robs the movie of almost any possibility of character development. What am I saying ? It is difficult even to figure out who is or isn't a character, just as it is difficult to figure out what, if anything, the character is / was / will be doing. It's flicker flicker jump flash flicker switch jump turn turn switch flicker, pretty much for the whole length. Other reviewers may have mentioned this before me, but I'll say it anyway : do NOT watch the movie if you are subject to migraines or epilepsy. I gather that this is the director's first foray into cinema, so perhaps he can take comfort in an old saying : the first pancake of the batch is always a failure.

90% of this film is 1st person view and the camera always shake and shake. The story was switched between present and the past making me confused. I sugest not to watch it, don't waste your time for this.

I liked this one a lot. I've liked Dan Stevens since "Downton Abbey" and "The Guest". Also, I'm giving this one "A for Accomplishment", as it's another "How the bleep did they do it?" movie. It sure had more studios involved than I've ever seen at the top of a movie before (and somebody else can enlighten me on just what all those entities do). The plot involves a scary-to-begin-with plan to create a 2nd or "echo" Earth (universe??) and draw power from the echo, solving all our power needs for-evah! Of course, something goes quite, quite wrong, and a small group of heroes have to go, y'know, THERE, and try to undo the mess. There are a few too many close calls here, with nifty hovering gunships, where the sighting and aiming program must've been hacked by Kim Jung Un. Stevens' "Will Porter" gets knocked out too many times, with "Concussion detected" showing up on his built-in "Google Glass". But it's good and worth seeing, because it's so unique, and I'd sure like to see the budget for this one.

While the science by its self is reasonably sound, at the same time; I believe that String theory is a subset of M-Theory while I am not completely up-to-date on the in's and out's I fairly certain these two are not reconcilable together as they are both Opposing Theory's!Further more this movie lost me the moment I was supposed to believe that He has to travel 8+ Km while walking right past a Boat and then a Bike! I mean common who's not going to take a boat to the island in the middle of the giant lake! We're supposed to believe the main actor is standing on a bridge over looking water with boats parked in dock and in the distance is the tower, if they wanted to do the FPS sequence thing they should have watched Doom at-least that was done right ... The movie just gets more cliché from that point forward. I was really hoping that this was going to be a hidden gem something that slipped under the radar ending up on some under-rated list, but I don't see that happening. Save your self the time and just go watch cat videos on or something.
