Cypher is a mysterious, paranoid sci-fi flick that I at first found more absorbing than The Matrix. I then found it confusing and it tragically disappointed me in the end. Such intelligent and formalistically elegant filmmaking deserved much more than the unsatisfying, second-rate conclusion!

A low budget sci-fi film that isn’t ashamed of its cheap visuals but actually proud of them. Cypher is a small, low profile and austere film about industrial espionage full of twists that surprise at the beginning with their cadence and essence, but then (in the last half hour) become rather annoying and pointlessly messy. And the main one at the end was very disappointing. Otherwise, though, thumbs up, if only there were more small genre films like this.

A cheap, but technically non-cheating sci-fi that works for the first half hour or so, when Natali's talent for working with tension and paranoid atmosphere is on full display. But when he lays out the first hand of cards, he is sadly hampered by the screenwriter, who bluffs with the most outlandish special effects instead of elegant trump cards, and everything is obstructed by a predictable point. The fact that it doesn't really make much sense (the question "why all this?" will haunt me for a long time) doesn't matter - the fact that you’re yawning an hour into it does.
