The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

If you like Tilda Swinton or science fiction at all, you owe it to yourself to see this movie -- if you're lucky enough to find it. Swinton plays Dr. Rosetta Stone (a character name indicative of the level of allegory present), a scientist who has produced three clones (sort of) of herself.The result is a commentary on discovering what it means to be alive and the relationship between technology and creativity. It's quirky, comedic view of the future reminded me at times of "A Clockwork Orange" without the nasty, violent undercurrent.The highlight is Swinton's sweet, funny portrayals of Stone and her three creations, each with s strongly developed character.Most surprisingly and gratifyingly, donuts are revealed as a major nutritious staple of the future.

Possibly a most boring movie I've ever seen. A totally cringed plot about cloning and related issues - but the director is fully uninterested in her plot.I've read previous reviews - but if there's anything "artistic" about this movie (apart from fabulous dresses of the clones and a single-driver car), please point it out. If anything "pro-fem", point it out. It just cannot be seen from the screen nor heard from the dialogues.Anyhow, it might be the worst investment of your 80 minutes. Luckily though, not more than 80.3/10

First of all, you can't look at this movie in terms of realism, it's just a big psychadelic dream. Yes, we all know computer viruses and human viruses can't be transmitted to one another; but it's also not the point of this movie. This movie has to be looked upon as pure fantasy, not as a study of possible future reality. Hell, the solid red, green, and yellow color schemes should clue you in that this is more like 60's psychadelic dreams. Other clues that this is fantasy is that Rosetta talks to her clones, Ruby, Olive, and Marine through a microwave oven!One great line in the movie that really got me rolling on the floor was when Olive tells Marine that a virus that she just eradicated was from an attachment, and Marine responds that "Rosetta was right attachments are dangerous". Of course, this was double entendre, one meaning of the word "attachment" meant email attachments, while the other one meant relationships. If you didn't understand this movie the first time, then you owe it to yourself to watch it again to catch all of these little pokes at modern life.

When I read that this film was going (someday) to be released, I knew that I'd love it. Swinton and Jeremy Davies acting, and Lynn Hershman writing and directing was a sure (for me) winning team. You get what you expect. I loved Teknolust. I suppose I should change genders. I am a male (or at least I was at last check). Grr. Or should I say Girrly. For most male Egos in Bushy Amerika this kind of `Fem-Film' is out-of-bounds. This is a film for anyone who wants a chance to chuckle at the absurdities of modern life. If you don't go see `Master and Commander.'
