The First Jellyfish

About This Movie

The First Jellyfish is a curious piece of science fiction that dives into the murky waters of corporate control and personal desperation. The atmosphere is thick with tension, really capturing that feeling of paranoia and uncertainty. Pacing can be a bit uneven, but it adds to the overall sense of urgency as the protagonist wrestles with the grip of a mutagenic drug. The performances are raw, almost visceral, lending an authenticity to the characters’ struggles. What stands out are the practical effects—quite impressive for a smaller production. They carry a certain weight that enhances the story's dystopian elements. Overall, it’s a thoughtful exploration of drug dependency and the lengths one might go to reclaim their autonomy.
