I personally liked the movie but I can not recommend it due to its major flaws. This movie tried to be a Kafka dialog + Tarovsky type of universe + Equilibrium Movie plot all in one go. On paper it is clever but in practice it does not hold up to what it wants to deliver.
The movie is also too long. By minute 50 you already understand the principle but it keeps dragging on for another 50 minutes reiterating what the first part of the movie already defined.
The part that hurt this movie the most is the poor camera handling and sound design. They simply jumped too fast and didn't allow the other sensory stimulants of the viewer to take in the information at its maximum value.
The plot of the movie infers what is fundamentally wrong with society as a whole and it is presented through the lens of people that can't lie. The acting was decent in that remark and they even had a few big named actors in there, but I feel that they were not used for their full acting potential either.
This movie tried to be too ambitious and the production didn't have a good enough team and possibly time to bring it together as it should have truly been. For the casual viewer this will feel as a bad movie that is very jumbled, while for the intended audience this movie will feel mediocre due to it's shortcomings.
