Override (2021)
4/10
It could have been a contender....

The idea is interesting. The script is stilted and stops flowing after the first Jack. The lead actresses performance is stunning, Goss is believable but the rest of the cast, could have done better. The set design was stunning and the cinematography was great.

The areas of weakness were the editing and its interaction with the convoluted plot. I don't object to a convoluted plot. I rather like twists and turns. Opportunities were missed. The same story could have been told with fewer actors and better direction. At one point a character expresses regret, but without the non verbal indications of shame. It looses credibility long before this point.

Abuse of the android could have been indicated without the long screens of Jack 2.

I'm not one for gratuitous violence but a build up would have helped the plot.

I watched it all the way through, but it's disappointing. So much potential not achieved.
