What a nice little movie. Although there's no WoW moment, I consider it very special. This movie is more than well done. It's a simple story with a supernatural aspect. And the way it's presented is just very beautiful to watch. Might not be everybody's cup of tea, but for me, I enjoy movies like this big time.

Simply very nice
Lets be realistic
I'm not trying to mean. I'm happy that people have the opportunity to create and market their movies outside of the conglomerate that is the Hollywood mainstream.
That said, you still have to have some skill, and this movie didn't reflect that.
Boring, pointless, no true plot direction, no drama/comedy/or any identifiable genre components, unattractive actors/actresses (sorry, but true),very poor casting, non-sensical writing...I can go on, but I won't.
More than anything else, this was a poorly written movie. The dialog was dumb at best, methodically lost at worse. The plot, full of holes a Mack truck could manage through, went no where and made no sense and did absolutely nothing for the viewer. Nothing.
Speed of Life wasn't so much a bad movie as it was bland and un-entertaining. 2/10.
Forget the science but focus on relationships
Although the movie has a wormhole around the story toss out any realism around that. The true focus of the movie is about relationships and how they can change over time in my opinion.
It also shows what life might be like in 2024 but I wouldn't take any of that seriously. The focus is indeed on the relationships of people.
I loved how it showed what young people might be focused on versus what they might be focused on later in life.
Loved the pacing of it too.
It might not be to everyone's taste but I could watch it again.
