What a shame... feels like a lost opportunity.
Initially, the plot has a promising setup, but quite quickly & steadily devolves into a hot, sticky, convoluted mess that in the end fails to deliver.
Clearly the entire premise is built around some sort of climactic deus ex singularity, and written backwards from there, but this just feels super lazy writing.
I suspect there was an interesting idea in there, somewhere, but it got lost in the wash.
Talented actors are cast adrift in a mess of a movie.
John Boyega.... top quality of a shit movie.
Maybe the title threw me off...I was expecting some more multiversal aspects. I think I'm going to watch this again, interesting mix of scifi/us law & justice system and a heist?
