In a culture where criticism of spiritual leaders is either muted or non-existent, stories like this need to be told. The villain in this film is prevalent in so many communities in Cambodia and other neighboring countries.

The cinematography was top tier and the contrast between rich and poor could not have been done better. In parts of the film where the plot slowed, the cinematography kept me interested.

Getting good performances from child actors is rare, but you will not find better than this movie. The tag-along friends did some of the best child acting I have seen from any movie. Very natural performance.

I really enjoyed this film and was not expecting such a high caliber production.

The story and acting performances (as well as solid CGI - especially considering the slimmer budget) take a fairly original form by blending its cyberpunk setting and themes with regional religious lore.

Deserves two viewings minimum to catch things you might not have on the first viewing. Overall it is an enjoyable, humorous, and emotionally impactful film with some mystery and intrigue.

The story does well to highlight social injustices commonly depicted in sci-fi and cyberpunk, but respects you enough to not preach too much.

Normally, the setting of a movie does not strike me, but it is refreshing to see a cyberpunk film like this set in SE Asia that doesn't have to rely on massive action set pieces or solving problems with violence (not that there's anything wrong with cool action movies).

The final act gets a little "busy", but a second viewing should help it all click together for the viewer.

As we (the audience) keep clamoring for original stories and concepts, writers like Wachtel seem to agree and has answered that thirst with this unique movie.
