It's a fantastic audio-visual journey that takes you into a world of medieval fantasies full of all the classical elements but with fresh stories and views. If you enjoy the work of Paolo Sorrentino (2013 Oscar for "La grande bellezza") you will love this film for it's masterful craft of building a world within. Only Salma Hayek delivers a disappointing performance: Stiff and uninspired. Pictures, music as well as sound design and costumes (not to mention the practical effects) are all stunning! Italy (with the help of France and the UK) delivers once again a masterpiece on the very tight budget of only 12 million uros while the rest of European cinema is sleeping.

boring and cheap
23 September 2014
boo! it's boring and cheaply done. not yet another cheap schrödinger's cat, quantum entanglement thing. not good scifi here. it's funny in the beginning but then it drops to not being very entertaining. thin writing and thin suspense. any elegance is missing from the movie, the only thing i liked was the roswell-reference in the beginning.
big fan of good scifi but this was just nothing i would call scifi. it has the feel of a mystery TV movie and lacks any cinematic quality. taste is subjective but for me this is very clear. and it has nothing to do with being independently produced. if you really want to see a good indie flick that has a nice touch to it, try "the east". not really science fiction but it has all the important elements.
