The Worst Film Ever

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Really enjoyed this pilot and have been a bit surprised at the lack of news about this programs future. Also slightly annoyed that it's not available anymore

I absolutely loved this episode & the story lines. I'm a great fan of Sci-Fi and,sadly,there are no great,not even good,shows in this genre at present. I'd think with the millions of Sci-Fi fans,more shows would be on or in production. This was one with great story,good, solid actors and has/had much promise.Other than Westworld (which I really don't consider "Sci-Fi"),there aren't any others out and Westworld's popularly should be an example of people wanting something less vanilla. I think had Amazon shot a full season instead of just a pilot,they would have realized just how many people are drawn to & love these type shows. Out of the box is risky,but I'd think it would have a better pay off than just another random vanilla series we're now overwhelmed with. Hopefully, it's not buried.

great plot and it seems that a great story begins, easy watching and very interesting show, lots of cast members are from "got". can't wait to see the next episodes. hope it will come soon, it have a big potential to be one of the top TV shows ever. sci-fi, horror, mystery, drama, action, everything is well mixed up. so if you didn't see this yet, you better start watching right now, cause there is no way you regret it

The casting, the dialogue, the foundational details--it's all wrong. I was excited to watch this, as I love sci fi books and movies, even the Could-Never-Happen-Like-Ever sub genre. The author, writers and director on Oasis, though, take implausible to ever greater heights.Can we please start with Haley Joel Osment's character? He is fat, anxious, has a learning disability and, also, astigmatism. Early on in the pilot, It is mentioned that it costs $100 million to send each person to Oasis. I am not currently on any NASA committees, but I think I am qualified enough to say that the child actor who grew up to be Zach Galifinakis's less attractive, nervous little brother should be off the list. You, sir, are no Matt Damon.If that's not enough (and it is), the timeline is a major plot hole for me. It takes place in dirty near-future (2032), yet we have in 15 short years from now created spacecraft and technology suitable for intergalactic travel such that we have a colony on the new planet (with Jeeps) as well as a dialogue with the aboriginals and some early adopters of Christianity.Which brings me to: in 15 years we're interested in converting our first alien allies to Christianity? It's confusing. Are we trying to help them? Hurt them? Is it so humans appear more credible or less credible? Oh, here's the major spoiler for the rest of the season: the pilot is based on a sci fi novel called The Book of Strange New Things. Why is it called that, you may ask? Because the aliens can now speak English and they can also read the Bible which they call the Book of Strange New Things. (Facepalm. If the one book we're giving them is the Bible, I think the message is better conveyed in the original Greek? I don't know. It's not really my thing.)I do want to interject here that the effects were pretty awesome for a streaming TV pilot.Anil Kapoor is an opportunist. He was poorly cast. This fella had never seen a sci fi movie prior to filming this pilot, though, in his promotional interviews for this show, he confirms that he has since seen 2001 and Star Wars, so now he understands the genre. I mean, yes, a person's first two sci fi movies should be 2001 and Star Wars, but those two movies are not eponymous enough to be a genre study. (Okay, they are, but this man is an interloper in the sci fi world.)Also, bad dialogue and the acting is a mixed bag. I do not need a full season of this.
