Stilted acting all around but appropriate for each of the oddball characters. The ultra genius nerdishily awkward kid protagonist builds a device using old radio transistor parts motivated by wanting to listen in on what happened to his father in the past which seems innocent enough but the device also removes the expectation of privacy for anybody who has ever said anything. He hooks up with a fellow flake in the form of a suicidal hottie with a troubled past which she also desperately wants to listen in on. A well-intentioned but naive detective and a whatever-it-is-I'm-against-it shopkeeper fall victims to the sociopathic bad guys serving mammon and bereft of any moral compass. The effects are quite cheesy and mostly just stop action framing but it remains engaging throughout and has a satisfying ending. Not a must-see but worth the watch.

Good idea, lousy implementation
The scientific concept behind the movie's idea is intriguing & promising, however the plot & script -alas- have more holes in them than in a sponge.
A must-watch, on fast-forward.
Sound perv
You've seen this movie a thousand times. The idea is sound, but never really gets put to good use. The main character spends most of his time indulging in audio voyeurism. It's slow and plodding and never really gets out of second gear.
Have a look if you have nothing better to do.
