Just really mediocre, for one the animation style just isn't refined like in oppolo 10 and a half.
The rotoscope gimmick kinda works in oppolo because it doesn't feel as loose like in here.
The characters are fine like there not bad but also not good.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A disorienting descent into paranoia and fragmentation that pulls you into the protagonist's unraveling mind, rendered in rotoscoped animation that makes the unreality tangible. It's a science fiction noir that feels like a fever dream about surveillance and self-dissolution.
