I watched it again last night and was blown away yet again. The acting (Sarah Snook is amazing), the story, the twists, the crazy ending... wow. If you haven't seen it check it out now. Trust me, it's not your conventional sci-fi movie. Don't watch any trailers or read anything about it. Go in fresh and you'll be in for a pleasant surprise.
Edit: Avoid looking at posts in this forum. Spoilers galore!
I reckon so too.
If it was an American production it would have undoubtedly received more awards.
Hell, I'm Australian and a huge sci-fi fan and it had zero advertising and wasn't even shown in any of my local cinemas.
I have just seen this and was quite board.
I liked the new Sonic move much more LOL.
I give this a 4 out of 10.
I am not being facetious when I say I am not surprised.
Oh and don't bother reading any Heinlein novels or short stories.
The advertising let it down, they really needed people to swamp the reddit sci-fi message bored's otherwise people will watch it and not know what is going on and get board.
shareyeah... no. as a MOVIE, they ruined it with that first HOUR that was like a boring, expositional stage play. otherwise, it did some predictable, anticlimactic things that were interesting a little bit, but not touching or astounding or anything.
I feel no need to ever watch it a 2nd time. Once was enough to go, "huh. cool." and move on to better films.
