Forbidden Symmetries is a curious piece of science fiction that dives into the chaos of an alien invasion, but from a uniquely fractured perspective. It’s all about three witnesses, each with their own version of events, and it plays with the idea of subjective reality. The atmosphere is unsettling, filled with tension, and you can feel the weight of confusion in the pacing - it drags in spots but that seems intentional, adding to the disorientation. Practical effects are used sparingly, but when they appear, they carry a raw authenticity, which is refreshing. The performances? They tread that fine line between believable fear and almost detached observation, making you question the reliability of their accounts. It’s not your typical invasion flick, that’s for sure.
