Consensus Reality

About This Movie

Consensus Reality is an intriguing blend of science fiction and psychological thriller. The film really immerses you in this dark, twisted version of New York, where the city itself feels like a character. The pacing is a bit uneven, which might be off-putting for some, but it adds to the disorienting experience of the protagonist's descent into madness. The themes of perception versus reality are tackled in some interesting ways, especially through the lens of schizophrenia. Practical effects are used sparingly but effectively, adding a tactile quality that enhances the surreal atmosphere. It’s the performances that really stand out—there’s a rawness to them that brings the tension to life. Overall, it’s a puzzle of a film, and you might find yourself thinking about it long after the credits roll.
