A high-powered advertising executive and tech geek, David (Dickenson) seeks out a "genius-level creative" (comedian, musician, and "disinformationist" Reggie Watts, playing himself) to elevate Augmenta, a new device in immersive reality, beyond novelty and establish it as an innovative cultural tool. Despite his lofty vision, David ends up using the apparatus to create a life-like avatar of his best friend's girlfriend and has a virtual affair with it. While set in the near future, Creative Control looks back more than it does forward. Strong references to the second half of the 20th century (both cultural and cinematic) as well as clever nods to contemporary culture (tech industry leaders appear in cameos) create a rich pastiche to examine "how did we get this way?" while ultimately offering a stirring reflection of where we are right here and right now.

Another one of those movies that try to be sci-fi, but mainly rely on characters and dialogues. However, it must be said that in this case, I actually positively evaluate how the film was made. The black and white with special effects is very well done, as well as the occasional use of color, but unfortunately, it didn't contribute to me truly enjoying the film.
