Film Review: Otherlife by Sophia Cynthia Cabral

Release date: June 16, 2017
Companies involved: WBMC, Cherry Road Films, Head Gear Films (in association with), Kreo Films FZ (in association with), Metrol Technology (in association with), See Pictures
Director: Ben C. Lucas
Starring: Felipe Bau, Yolanda Muñoz, Cristina Perales
Plot: A Scientist, Ren Amari, creates a drug that makes people live experiences of days in a little amount of time, the product, called Other Life; she struggles with her partner called Sam about what to do with their new discovery.
Review: It seems like a relatively new fresh concept. The premise of the trip being as good as another normal memory and that is as perfect as it should be, an ideal day in short. It hooked me up from the start, which doesn’t happen often. It flows smoothly, Jessica’s acting is quite impressive, and natural when playing Ren. The movie in general is quite dark but also masterfully planned and brilliantly executed, I feel it has tons of potential for a sequel and I’d gladly love to see it done. For a weekend when you got nothing to do and want to see something futuristic. -Sophia Cynthia Cabral
