"Prepare for the latest mind-bender from Hotel California writer Meirad Tako. The story is a bit hard to follow at times, but it just keeps pushing its momentum forward." - Brenton Smalls, Playboy


"This one will leave audiences just as confused as its lead character, if not more so. That very well could have been intentional on the part of the filmmakers, but I don't think it served the story well." - Jason Helm, New York Observer

"While Peter Berg's more grounded approach as a director probably wasn't the best fit for this story, the story itself gets pretty crazy and should please fans of the writer. I would call the film a mostly successful take on just about every post-apocalyptic sci-fi trope around." - Samuel O'Brien, Sight and Sound Magazine
