The major problem with The Brain Hack is the duration of the movie. Twenty minutes is just not enough to bring a story like this one. The idea though is good. I can see a longer movie being interesting with this story, but now it just fell undevelopped and unfinished. The acting and cinematography are okay as well is the story. It could be a good sci-fi thriller movie with the right funds and actors. The idea is there, it just needs the right people and more money to finish this story. Did I see God in the end? No I didn't, like nobody else ever did unless they are liars or schizophrenics.

Considering there are so many awful films produced these days I want to offer the makers of this every encouragement I can. They obviously have talent and I hope they make more films. The ideas here are very interesting & I would really like to see them expanded into a feature. Good work all involved. We don't have enough thought provoking cinema. Keep at it.

"The Brain Hack" is a 19-minute science-fiction short film from February this year. It was written and directed by Joseph White, a fairly unexperienced filmmaker, who, however, also worked on the recent James Bond movie "Skyfall". When I read the description already: "a metaphysical thriller for the digital generation", it basically says it all. This is supposed to be so smart, innovative and intelligent that it basically only could go wrong. How about setting the goal of making a movie that would appeal to all generations? Anyway, the main idea isn't bad here in terms of the story, but the 2 actors aren't too great really and apart from that, the film soon loses itself in special effects instead of going for a well-written story. The ending is pretty much the negative highlight with the photo effects. Not recommended.
