User Review
Vesper is a fine dystopian drama made for...I don't know, maybe young adults. It doesn't take things too seriously but looks like it rather wants to attract younger audiences.

The production was top-notch, and the film packed many familiar emotions and themes. The world was set up, but not much seems to have happened if anything at all. Lots of questions were left unanswered. I understand ambiguous endings, but you shouldn't just abandon the things you've set up. What's with the caterpillar? What's with the scavengers? What's with the mother? Is she the rotting corpse from the lab? Why would one citadel need the codes for other citadel seeds?

This was probably the biggest issue with this film. It got many things right, almost everything but an interesting story. There's little to no progression. It just makes you wonder why wasn't this a series. Just split this film into two episodes and develop the characters we can surely familiarize ourselves with.

Instead, they provided tons of great atmospheric sequences with nice music and environmental messages with hints of family bonds here and there. But almost nothing happened with the main story. The ending does not solidify Vesper's path. She could've ended up there without all the things happening.

It's slow and theme-heavy, but the production kept me watching. 20 minutes till the end, I started to suspect that we were not getting anywhere. Maybe this is only the first installment. If so - I'd love to get back to the sequel. I just hope this doesn't vanish.
