To me it feels like the movie is trying too hard. But that accounts for originality only, as the air itself smells quite foul in this case.

This film could be seen as a breath of fresh air. Some of the Hot Topic crowd will get excited about this commercially prepackaged angst, but really, let's hope they off themselves soon and put the rest of us out of their misery. but that's a sign of little more than a L.A. that it tends to take musical influences from everywhere else in the world and turns it into boring, generic lame metally dreck?!) At this point, the majority of 54 people rating this on Metacritic have said good things about this movie. and it shows! What a complete misuse of Ogre and Sarah Brightman! (What is it about L.A. someone with no real experience for writing notable music. Instead, we see goo musicians defer to some L.A. And no, it's not that I don't appreciate other things in this genre.

but unfortunately, the project just wasn't a good one. There is actual talent involved in this project. but these are probably the same people who enjoy watching two girls, one cup. There will be those who watch this a half-dozen times with their friends who start to appreciate the musical suckitude and learning some of the lyrics. but the visuals are weakened by jerky "Saw"-like jumpcuts, and the general lack of ambiance, both with the music, and with the somewhat substandard background atmospherics, drowned out by the craptacular soundtrack. Visually, the film is striking at points but clearly derivative, riffing off of the videogame BioShock and Blade Runner.

It's an brave attempt, perhaps, but ultimately the music sucks. Ultimately, the music - combined with inane lyrics - does discredit to people like Sarah Brightman and Ogre, who have stamped their names onto this mess. It's a glossy, fast-edited version of a completely forgettable musical. Ultimately, the music - combined with inane lyrics Don't believe your friends.
