I like Ethan Hawke. He's the star of my favorite vampire film, "Daybreakers," and he's a good actor. But after watching him stumble around Italy doing his worst Christian Bale Batman impersonation for 90 minutes, I'm left wondering about his choices in movie projects.

Lionsgate was kind enough to provide a review copy of "Zeros and Ones" for me, and while I feel bad for the following 800 words or so I'm about to write describing how it's one of the worst films I've ever reviewed, sometimes critics have to be ... well, critical. If I suddenly stopped being critical, Philip Martin probably wouldn't allow me to remain in his film section anymore.

Typically, in a film review, a writer will lay out the movie's summary without giving away any spoilers. There's just one problem here. I don't have any clue what I watched. I think back to my harshest reviews in this newspaper, either "Monday" or "Artemis Fowl," and in both of those movies, I at least had some hint about what I was seeing unfold on my TV screen.

But the story in "Zeros and Ones" is unintelligible to me. I was 100% lost for the entire film. And not "lost" like I didn't understand time travel mechanics in a Christopher Nolan film. I mean utterly lost, wandering around in the dark without a clue as to my destination, much like Hawke seemed to be in this movie.

That sounds like an exciting premise, no? It was certainly an exciting plot for Dan Brown's "Angels and Demons" novel. But I was watching scene after scene of "Zeros and Ones" utterly confused. There was nothing resembling a plot or any real characters. I don't even think I remember a single name used in the film.

Hawke was some kind of member of the military. He ran around filming things with a camera, recorded himself having sex with a woman at some point, and then maybe he tried to get a different woman and her child out of the city right as a bunch of unspecified soldiers with guns surrounded the building they were on top of. That's the most I could make of this movie.

Director Abel Ferrara is naturally owed some slack here. It couldn't have been easy to make a film during a pandemic, especially in a hard-hit country like Italy. So the fact that this 70-year-old director got an entire movie made under such conditions is worth some acknowledgement.

On March 8, 2020, Kamen Rider Zero-One: The Movie was announced to premiere double-billed alongside Mashin Sentai Kiramager The Movie: Bee-Bop Dream on July 23, 2020. However as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that delayed the filming of Superhero Time, both films were ultimately postponed.

Considering the slogan in the original teaser trailer is "The enemy isn't either human or Humagear.", some audiences began speculating that the film's original plot involved aliens in the sense of Ridley Scott's Alien. This was later confirmed correct in the film's DVD/Blu-Ray release as the original script had featured an extraterrestrial lifeform as its main antagonist before COVID-19 forced a rewrite.

With the COVID-19 pandemic affecting the production of the series, and ultimately pushing the film's original July premiere date to December, plot details such as post-series As, Kamen Rider Zero-Two and Kamen Rider Ark-One were revised,[2] and both Naki and Uchuyaro Raiden were added to the film, though their roles were minimized to accommodate for the newly rebuilt Is as well as Horobi's character development following his redemption.

Because the film only has 60 minutes to tell its story, the production team decided to have the film occur in real time, which the hour in which the viewers are in the theater watching the film, also countdown during the events of the film. The heroes wearing gas masks while fighting the simultaneous terrorist attacks by Syncnet and S is meant to symbolize the contemporary world situation where civilians were encouraged (or required in some countries) to wear face-masks while out in public.

After Kamen Rider Eden made a short appearance in the the final episode. it was announced that he would appear as the main antagonist in the following winter film, which would detach its double-billing with Kiramager's film as the latter was pushed into the following spring of 2021. On September 12, 2020, Toei revealed Hellrising Hopper, a movie-exclusive form for Zero-One that would appear in the film. The October issue of Televi-kun revealed production images and some plot details for the film. In November, along with the announcement of additional cast members for both films, both J and Nishikawa were confirmed to return to sing the film's ending theme song.

Parents need to know that Zeros and Ones is an experimental drama by cult-favorite filmmaker Abel Ferrara. It follows an American soldier (Ethan Hawke) in Rome during the COVID-19 pandemic who's trying to stop a bombing. The movie is full of strange, intriguing imagery and ideas, and mature viewers are bound to come away with differing interpretations. Violent scenes and images include a character being tortured via waterboarding, dead women covered in spattered blood, soldiers with guns, buildings exploding, and more. Someone seduces the main character, kissing him and removing his shirt, and two scantily clad women kiss and caress each other. Language includes a few uses of "f--king," "motherf----r," "c--ksucker," "s--t," and "p---y." The main character buys drugs (heroin?), and another character injects a drug into his hand. Characters drink vodka shots, vodka out of the bottle, and sparkling wine, and cigarette butts are seen.

Director Abel Ferrara goes even more deeply than usual into uncommercial experimental mode here, delivering an opaque, baffling movie. Zeros and Ones hardly has any plot, but it does offer a series of nervy ideas and undeniable sensations. If Ferrara's Tommaso and Siberia appealed mainly to the cult director's die-hard fans, then Zeros and Ones makes those two films look positively mainstream, like multiplex popcorn-munchers. This film recalls Jean-Luc Godard's arty, post-New Wave work or Terrence Malick's more polarizing offerings, wandering from one unexpected moment to something else that feels totally disconnected, with various thoughts like "a hard road leads to a real life" expressed seemingly at random.

The pandemic -- and images of hand-washing and masks -- are among the most familiar things in the movie, providing something of an anchor but also indicating more uncertainty. Hawke is the only other familiar thing here. The movie opens with a video of him introducing the movie and ends with another video of him trying to make sense of what we've just seen. He closes with "yes, this is part of the film." Even the title, Zeros and Ones, is unclear, unless it refers to the digital format in which the movie was made. Whatever Ferrara is trying to say here, whether it's about conflict or acts of violence or something else, it's told by a veteran filmmaker who hasn't lost any of his fire. It's a tough, tricky movie that's worth unpacking.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.

Everything I loved and enjoyed about the season (well-developed characters, dynamic and exciting action, timely and deep stories) was present here in this film. And the higher stakes combined with the feel of getting to check-in with old friends made this a thrilling and satisfying experience.

The film begins a few months after the series where the mysterious Esu leads a worldwide cult of doomsday followers who believe destroying the world will lead them to a new paradise. Using stolen ZAIA technology, the followers are able to henshin into an army of Kamen Riders that begin to attack cities around the world.

REALxTIME works especially well because it is both a standalone story as well as the continuing adventures of these characters that we have grown to love and care about over 45 episodes. One could certainly come into this film without knowing much about the series. But being familiar and even more so, being invested in these characters as you come into the film really makes the entire experience that much more worthwhile and satisfying.

Knowing these characters inside and out also allows you to jump right into the action and focus on the imminent and dangerous threat. And the film does an excellent job of setting the stage right from the first minute.

REALxTIME specifically expands on the idea from the series that Ark was fed by hatred. Though the series vaguely touched on religious themes, this film takes it a step further in a way that allows the material to be darker and more visceral. Certainly to the extent that would probably not be appropriate for the weekly series. 2351a5e196
