My quick rating - 5,3/10. Nice to see that someone learned something from @oklahoma ward and used the lighting provided by the characters to illuminate the scene. Or maybe director Christian Cantamessa has seen #CRAWLorDIE and didn't rely on a film crew to light each scene unrealistically. Anyway the movie is more drama of the isolation of two men who are hired to keep air (which is a hot commodity in this movie) pumping to people in tubes(sleep) who will die without it. The men, who are both played very well are on the brink of losing sanity in the desolation of this future world where AIR is their gold. Hence why it is considered scifi. This is more of a low budget yet very effective take on a bleak world with actors who portray the loneliness well. A bit slow overall but not a movie that is made for fear or action but wants you to think.
