    Eva

    Reviewed by

    I must start by saying I rarely give these sci fi+... films much praise as my interest in them is waning by the day.

    In this film that has just recently been released in North America from its filming in 2011, it has garnered a fair amount of international praise by the international community where Eva, early on appeared at Festivals and eventually released in limited format in in N. A... Set in 2041 when humans live along side machines, a cyber metric engineer leaves his home in the hopes of creating a child/girl robot. All this is of no consequence as the film opens.

    But this is basically a prequel of the film itself OF LITTLE CONSEQUENCE as the story really BEGINS ON HIS (Alex's) RETURN HOME becoming fascinated or beyond with the UNION PRODUCT of his brother and ex. THIS BECOMES THE TRUE CRUX OF THE STORY AND ALL THAT IT WILL ENSUE... THE REAL PLOT starting with this obsession I find wildly difficult to understand how a man and girl have whatever they have. The plot goes on to reveal things that can never be so in my mind... but then one re-thinks that the year is... 2041.

    You have to make your own decisions and deductions about what is occurring in the bulk of the film, something very odd and disturbing about Alex and the connection to Eva, the small girl. Audiences seem to accept it wholly, having won some awards at festivals and some good reviews from top critics. But something is just not right for me in this literal Road trip, one could label Revolutionary. This is an extremely bizarre feature, even if well planned out. It will not meet with the approval or merit of all, as each will react differently. If of any intelligence, a person will deduce what the film is all about and come to his/her own conclusion.
