"Wow... really good thriller/horror! Pleasantly surprised. This isn’t a high paced, action-filled slasher type film. This is a film that requires a bit of effort to follow along as it unfolds. Overall, it’s somewhat of a slowburn (at least, in tone)... but it’s punctuated by some very violent moments. "
"I finally watched this over the weekend after it was recommended to me on multiple asks. I am kicking myself for not watching it sooner, this was absolutely a don’t judge a book by it’s cover moment for me! This is one of the better psychological sci-fi thrillers I’ve seen in a long time. Really enjoyed it! Thank you to everyone who sent it my way!"
"Just another art house, sci-fi, psychological horror, splattercore, body swapping assassin movie. Why can’t anyone do anything original? In all seriousness though, the younger Cronenberg finds an interesting mix of tones and ideas which allows the movie to feel both contemplative and visceral at the same time. The final act was a bit clunky and felt inevitable but this was a promising attempt from a rising filmmaker. 3.5 out of 5 stars"

"A thriller with science fiction, but much closer to the real environment we live in, nothing futuristic, but more minimalist.
The story is very good, very well constructed, dense, strong and impactful. The only thing I missed was more development of the main character, who is very interesting, as are the situations shown in the movie."
