Review of Control Alt Delete

This movie certainly deserves more attention, but then again, the more people will watch it, the more likely it will be rated badly. Why? Because people usually are not very honest with themselves, and if faced with their own dark side of their soul, they turn against the mirror, instead of the beast in themselves.

This movie does exactly that, it depicts a code-monkey, who has to face the "beast" inside of him, just to realize that this is not a beast, but the normal state of mind, which most just do not admit - or they enjoy those freakish things which are more tolerated by society.

This movie is about perspective, honesty and taking responsibility.

Like a modern version of the Marquis de Sade, this movie is not shy of exploring the weirder fantasies that most of us repress, but all have.

While underlined with the aforementioned honesty, that forces an occasional smirk onto the viewers face, it is not so much about laughing, but more about understanding the human melodrama we are all part of. But there are some "Oh Snap!"-Moments, predictable ones, but still enjoyable.

This is not the movie I would watch several times, but it does deserves a higher rating and a somewhat more open-minded audience.
