I always like a dystopian theme. I feel like this movie made attempts at noting human behavior under stress, how we rely on technology, etc. I'm always down for that too. But it felt a little shallow on some moments that were supposed to be clear messages. I was entertained, it made me think, and that was enough.

I was pleasantly surprised by the plot of this movie. It started out ok and I thought it was going to be predictable but then it threw in some curveballs I didn't see coming. Some of the acting or minor details didn't smooth or connected but otherwise I really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to a sequal hopefully, especially based on the ending.

I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. It didn't have huge development in the relationship of Ezra and Amira but it firmly tapped on the window, and then just opened the front door and walked in, on a lot of real issues in black america. Casting was amazing, aesthetics and costume were amazing. No it's not Oscar worthy, but it's a solid feel good, real topics, romcom-dramedy. A certain type of white person will be mad at it, but that's good. Maybe eventually they'll look in the mirror if we knock on their windows long enough. Was also fully proud of Eddie Murphy's acting. He did a really good job, I forgot he was Eddie Murphy the comedian which doesn't happen often, even in other serious roles he's had.
