I wonder how many haters here have actually tried to make a movie, to go through the whole process and then subject themselves to the slings and arrows of the masses. This is an independent film. Made by people who see film making more as an art than a product. I will not criticize Rob Heydon who has put blood, sweat, and tears into making this. However, I don\’t mind criticizing someone like Michael Bay who was handed 160 million dollars to make a movie and still ended up with camera shadows in his final cut. Do not be so quick to judge my fellow lovers of film, when it\’s just you and not a studio, the work is alot harder and you truly better love it.
I for one read and loved the book, I am a fan of \”The Kreuk\” and I am really looking forward to this film. 🙂

Actually I see this is the updated version of the trailer with dialogue. I think it still looks okay even if the trailer looks like it could have been cut a little better.

Its kind of hard to judge anything off a trailer with no dialogue. I hope Kristin Kreuk is good in it. She\’s kind of had hit or miss performances and while changing the origin of the her character may anger some readers of the book, that was done at Welsh\’s blessing who was on set to oversee everything.

It\’s obviously going to look low budget since its an indie movie from a first time director, but I\’m hoping its still comes out OK. It does have a generic rave/drug movie look, but still looks relatively fine for a small budget film to me.

The soundtrack is so disappointing! Tiesto, Deadmau5? Come on… get some proper/of-the-time techno in there.

Where & when is the setting in film adaptation? I wonder as K.K. doesn\’t play Welsh, and there are so many Canadian actors in it. I haven\’t read the book, but I thought it was set in the UK in the early-mid \’90s?

I think it\’s superficial express so detailed opinions (of course negative),only having seen a trailer. you should watch the movie, or at least inform you better.
the film looks promising, it seems very interesting, is not the usual story of drugs. the script is very accurate and the cast looks great.
The trailer looks good to me, whereas this is not the official one…

Chun-Li and hobbits do drugs, I knew it… looks like one of those films that try way to hard and end up very generic – one could badly pun it to be Gridlock\’d -, instead of going the \”Human Traffic\” route and be fucking fun!

Tecno music! Drugs! Sex! Violence! How outrageous! This looks like one of the most boring, generic things I\’ve seen in a long time.

This looks pretty lousy. Really low-budget, badly-shot, badly-acted. Not sure what other commenters are talking about.
