"As someone who really appreciates art it was hard to look over how beautiful and interesting the set of this film. It felt so real. Also the stark contrast of the wilderness surrounding the technological hidey -hole was really interesting.

As for the story I was not sure I'd be able to keep up with the deeper meaning of the story because I'm not a tech savvy person at all but anyone could get into this. The suspense was killing me, and things got pretty heated. When I finally got to the part where I realized why everything was happening I did not want this movie to end. I don't want to leave any spoilers here but this is the first time I've ever seen this concept in a movie and I have sooo many questions.

I feel there is more left in this story and I am keeping my fingers crossed that there is more to come!!"

"Crypto Shadows is a multiple award-winning collaboration between Amy Kay DuBoff and James Fox, who themselves are acclaimed award-winners in writing and other artistic fields. It is a superb techno-thriller starring Mikayla Iverson, who is the only actor whose face appears on screen. She more than holds her own as she is stalked and eventually hunted by an unnamed clandestine agency, after she stumbles into a mind numbing secret in the course of her work.

Miss Iverson's character, Cara Hammond, is forced to try to determine who is after her, and why, as her computer defenses, personal identity, and ultimately, her very life are attacked at her remote location.

Crypto Shadows is a fast-paced, suspense-filled film showcasing beautiful scenery and outstanding acting and writing, and the viewer does not need to be technically savvy to appreciate and enjoy it."

"With the subject of my review you might be even more confused, I know that with a title like "crypto..." I expect the movie to be 100% technology based, and it is but put in a way that even if you are not a geek you will be pulled into the story and the drama. If you are tech savvy, you'll enjoy it deeply, albeit some little flukes that I'm sure are put there to make it more amicable to the not really techy.

The plot is very engaging and even that there is only one face in the whole movie, the actress carries the weight very well.

If you get thru the movie once, you'll enjoy it even more the second timer around.

For those that are followers off the authors, everything falls in place at the right moment.

100% recommended if you are into thrillers and drama, but if you are also into sci-fi, this is a must watch."
