An intriguing, deadpan sci-fi dark comedy about our dependence on electronics, CREATIVE CONTROL depicts a disturbingly realistic-seeming near future. It's well-acted, imaginative, very funny in parts, and beautifully shot. It's also got tremendously good effects for what is clearly a very low budget.

The story begins to lose focus toward the end, though, which is what keeps it from attaining the same level of success as HER or EX MACHINA (two films that ponder many of the same ideas, albeit in very different fashion).
