While I thought the concept of those lingering 8 minutes before your mind dies was very interesting (just like persistence of vision which allows us to enjoy film in the first place!), the resulting story is disappointing. Vera Farmiga's character makes a final decision which is forced into the narrative; she needed more screen time for us to care. The main couple is also lacking moments to build up the chemistry between them.
In short, there is a lack of passion. The credits start rolling when you realized you didn't feel a rush at any point. It's a movie you can watch with your head and be entertained, yes... but it never reaches the heart.
