Maybe the book was thrilling. The actor playing Simon was decent. The rest of the acting was subpar. The killer, though, whoo boy! He was awful and silly in that ridiculous outfit and his over the top "acting". Only thing missing was a mustache to twirl. If he wanted revenge on pop and his kind, why pick psychics? Because he thinks they talk to angels or demons? Who knows? Who cares? Liked the accents, but then, again, they're not accents in Scotland are they? Sorry but this was awful. Stars for the decent beginning. No stars for the silly ending and silly villian.

To be crowdfunded movie the expectation celling is really low but this movie is extermly well done with good acting and good story, unusual but nonetheless good story, give it a go

This is a great thriller and wonderfully shot around the centre of Edinburgh. It is consistently dramatic and visually rich, with several interesting characters. Well worth watching

Whilst it's clear this was a low budget movie, the filming around Edinburgh is beautifully done and the storyline keeps you on your toes. Really hope this is a first of many from Magnus Wake and his team.

Any story that takes a protagonist from boyhood to godhood in an hour and a half is hamstrung by its arc. It took Luke Skywalker three movies, plus the awful Last Jedi and even he didn't really get there. The idea is basically very good. Could be argued it tapped into the ancient Scottish, or at least Highlander idea of Second Sight. It's an interesting enough study. The author should have kept it at that level. So many shows that explore superpowers end up with the characters virtually omnipotent--then there is nowhere to go. Keeping it at a level of clairvoyance allows scope for unforced danger. Tension could have been created by virtue of the claim that Second Sight was actively induced as well as passively received. The protagonist actively developing his second sight could have provided a driver for the story. Then the story would mimic like--we get good at what we do, learning a skill, training for a marathon, learning to draw etc., instead of the 'gifted' from birth approach--like Rey in Star Wars--and, of course, only our protagonist can be gifted in this way. In the story, the 'danger' is created through a 'time loop'. The protagonist sees a vague glimpse of his future and in trying to avert it, he brings it on. It's a fairly tired motif. This Terminator time twist is mixed with the element of the 'hunt' as he stalks the wolf (Peter and the Wolf forms a large part of the story). While Simon, then, has almost omniscience, he can't see the wolf clearly--cause he's scared. There has to be limitations to omniscience but it's built in a false way. In this case, the powers come from connection and are limited by fear. He is connected to his minder and M15 agent but scared of the wolf/villain/psychopath--so he can't 'see' him. Keeping the powers limited in and of themselves would have solved the problem. (Of course, it could be argued this could have made it too much like the Eyes of Laura Mars.) The villain's motives seem unclear. His dad is a priest who disowns him--fair enough--but why does he target psychics? Surely, targeting religious figures would have made more sense? Perhaps I need to read the book. The film itself is well shot and the acting seems fine, although the villain is too campy.

40 minutes into this movie and it seems like still nothing has happened. It's too slow and the music will put you right to sleep! I have no idea what this movie is about and don't care to watch any more of it...

This film has a good premise but it's so incredibly slow it's almost unwatchable. There is a good film in here somewhere but it needs some serious editing down to actually be entertaining. Films don't HAVE to be at least 90mins long. It just feels like in order to reach 90mins they stretched out every shot they had, stuck in extra material and just used filler to make it longer. Shame. For an indie film the lighting and filming is good, some of the acting a bit dodgy, but overall the crew seem to have known what they were doing. It's just a shame about the story itself. 3/10.

About a young boy with a psychic sense who even when he's older feels a connection with a serial killer. Well acted and tense in places. Satisfying ending.

+1 Star for inserting one of my favorite piano Pieces!!!!! :) +1 Star for the first half of the movie. The first half build was pretty good. I was into the story and didn't fall to reading the ingredients on my bag of potato chips. Okay I thought the ending wasn't bad. But it wasn't great. Definitely not good enough to pus the score up any higher. It fact I lean more towards docking the score for the ending but, it really didn't annoy me or impress me so the score stands as is. Oh and really the moral of this story is to stand up and confront your demons. Don't let your demons control you or your whole life. Have some cahones!!!! :)
