This was a pretty enjoyable thriller. Some morally interesting ideas throughout. It had a bunch of cool story elements however the final act wasn't acted out with enough suspense. It's odd, this film lacked a sense of aggression. It felt like the writers were afraid of offending. It also lacked a sense of identity, it failed to leave a proper impression on me. Toby Kebbell as the Doc provided my favourite performance and Marling in the main role worked well. 

Anyone else watched this?

I should probably catch the other films of the Brit Marling circle of filmmakers at some point too.

have you seen The Sound of My Voice or Other Earth?
she is not human.

In what way? No I haven't seen those yet.

well if you're a fan of her at all, thats kind of required viewing.
and i guess i mean that she has this vibe and charisma to her that is so beautiful it doesn't even seem natural.
