Review of OtherLife (2017) by Jalen-Kun L — 04 Nov 2018

Otherlife wasn't really my cup of tea. I don't usually watch these types of movies, if i'm ever watching movies at all, so I am a little biased in saying that the movie was Kind of Boring and my interest was lacking.

It took a long time for the movie to get into the main plot and I didn't necessarily care for the characters despite half of the runtime being dedicated to getting to know them. I found myself getting easily distracted by other things, whether it be phone or natural sleepiness.

In terms of positives, the premise was very interesting, something that reminded me of Black Mirror (Just not as attention capturing). I also appreciated the mood/apperance of the whole movie. The theme of it all being so bleak, the dark lighting and total feeling of desolation and loneliness was perfectly executed.
