There Lies Another World

About This Movie

So, 'There Lies Another World' from 2017 is an interesting piece, to say the least. It follows these teenage siblings, Jack and Jessie, who stumble upon the thief of their missing toys, which leads them down a rabbit hole. The film's pacing is somewhat erratic but has a certain charm to it, especially as they witness the launch of a colonization shuttle to Mars. The blend of action with this coming-of-age vibe feels a bit unique, though the unknown director may not have had the polish you'd expect. Practical effects are present, giving it a raw feel, and the performances from the young leads carry a certain earnestness that’s refreshing. It’s not groundbreaking, but there’s something about its tone that keeps you engaged.
