After the first 26 minutes: after this war the world is a very different place, so some people like to go through this procedure called Reminiscence; basic description of this; a individual gets jabbed with this substance to make things easier to get to the thoughts, goes inside this thing called a tank with a neurological a like helmet and with some psychological assistance from Nick Bannister [Hugh Jackman] and colleague Emily 'Watts' Sanders [Thandiwe Newton] the client can revisit their memories. Now everything was going okay until Nick meets Mae [Rebecca Ferguson] after this Nick or Watts lives are never the same again.

The pacing is terrible it just really dribbles on and on and on and on [I think you get the point,] where my interest was circling the off button was the first 26 minutes and it just got worse and worse from there really, I mean don't get me wrong the closing stages to this project did engage me so I just awarded another mark to the final mark of this project, but for the vast majority of this 116 minute film it was hard work.

The biggest asset to this film title by some distance is the artistic visions of any of it, be it the landscapes or in Reminiscence or this action sequence underwater between Nick and Cyrus Boothe [Cliff Curtis] basically in short if you want to watch this film for the art you will not go wrong it is eye-catching everywhere you look.

The character types and performances fulfil their purpose and are reliable performances.

This film receives: 3/10, this film is poor; yes this project clearly has some positives, but man this film became such a chore to watch with every passing moment, but somehow this film has some positive awards credited to its name. 2; 1 Winner ReFrame 2022; ReFrame Stamp Feature and 1 Nominee Hawaii Film Critics Society 2022; HFCS Award; Best Sci-Fi Film.
