Great movie! Sort of a Twilight Zone feel with woman power! It is better to not watch the trailer beforehand unless you get scared easily and want to get a heads up first so that you will know what to expect. But it is better to watch it without the trailer first. Either way, it is a good action pack movie with a clear underlying message. This movie knows what it is and it is easy to get invested in the characters while knowing that things are going to get crazy.
This is bad movie but it’s really entertaining.
Metacritic
If not for Moretz’s expressive face, the film might stall out before it really gets rolling. It does get rolling though … and at maximum speed.
The twists come rapidly in the movie’s first half; in the second, the narrative dissolves into a zigzag of flying bodies and explosions that bend the laws of space-time. But the implausibility of it all is a perk: There’s never a moment in this rollicking film when you can tell what’s coming next.
Roseanne Liang's Shadow in the Cloud is the type of genre movie that makes many of its bizarre choices just for the sake of seeing if it can all work. But whether you find the film to be ambitious, or just some stunt screenwriting, it's intriguing to watch an audacious filmmaker try to keep midnight-ready movies unpredictable, even if that means a sincere but silly mash-up of WWII dogfights, gremlin chaos, and feminism in action such as this.
