Kill Switch (Redivider)
This touching story tells about an entirely different experience by a young man. That story began with the military experience of harnessing unlimited energy. That experience may be drastically distorted, leaving a pilot with no choice but to fight. This pilot may enter a new journey through a world exploding in order to save his family and the planet himself.

A visually ambitious, convoluted muddle of gamer-influenced science fiction.June 15, 2017
It looks fine enough, but looking fine enough can't be the extent of an entire movie.June 15, 2017
A pointless gush of science-fiction bilge.June 15, 2017
The tiresome, desensitizing first-person-shooter aesthetics in Kill Switch (not to be confused with Steven Seagal's 2008 thriller) diminish what modest humanity Smit's movie musters.June 26, 2017
Kill Switch is essentially a cutscene from Halo that somehow stretches for 90 minutes, and you keep wanting to press the skip button to start playing.June 15, 2017
Imagining the imminent end of the world has been boring for years now in movies, and the low-budget sci-fi thriller "Kill Switch" is no exception.June 16, 2017
The action level is never quite as high as it should be to justify the first-person view, and so it feels too often like we're watching somebody play an RPG, which is boring as Hell.June 14, 2017
"Kill Switch" might have been the next "Primer" or "District B13," but instead it feels like a demo reel for a game that nobody can play.June 16, 2017
Through visual trickery and a jumbled chronology, the muddled film is structured as a puzzle about corporate greed, socioeconomic class and technological overreach that most moviegoers won't care enough to solve.June 16, 2017
The worst kind of science-fiction film: the kind that coasts on a central gimmick instead of delivering either visceral or intellectual thrills.June 15, 2017
It's either puzzling or vexing, and either way it's plain old disappointing.
