Being a short, it’s one of the best written Sci-fi stories I've seen in a long time. Like all the greats that came before, Arthur C.Clark, Ray Bradbury, Frank Herbert, Isaac Asimov, Jules Verne, and of course H.G.Wells, Oceanus will leave you in awe with its suspense and intrigue along with it's musical-score that sounds as if where written buy one the long time great masters, leaving you starving for more. This short film is the beginning of a great film that will most certainly stand alongside the great classics!

Definitely pulled me in with the story line. I'm not a film critic, nor a professional in the industry, but I thought Ms. Dodd did a great job of playing the scientist so totally driven that she didn't realize what she was missing until she nearly lost it. And Mr. Atkins clearly showed his conflict between his frustration and professionalism as an engineer. And the overall technical quality was as good as anything I've seen from Hollywood. I never subscribe to anything on youtube. But I'm making an exception in this case, and looking forward to more of this saga.

The sound, the lighting, the Special Effects, the plot, the acting - every single piece of this was just exquisite. The pod controls were smooth, simple, the lighting - again - an INCREDIBLY convincing underwater environment, made infinitely more convincing by the distant shots of a person at the controls of the pod (incredible f/x work). I have seen every short out there - literally 99.9% of them - and this was by far the most coherent, best-acted, smoothest-edited, superior computer-generated f/x work, and best-edited short I have ever seen. Much better than some movies. It must have been very difficult to know when to stop, as the skill level of your team seems boundless - I will be waiting eagerly to see where this goes. Congratulations - you all have a HUGE future ahead of you. [Just one (seeming) tiny, tiny error: Under "cast" you have "Commander Mitch as Conrad Bruce Davison" on your comments below the video. I think you meant "Conrad Bruce Davison as Commander Mitch," in keeping with the order of the other credits. This is so small it seems petty to mention it - but it's just the way my mind works]. Congratulations on painstaking, beautiful, and dedicated work well done!

Director here: it's always a tremendous honor to know that you actually touched someone with your art. That was the goal. I wanted to create a story that was resonated emotionally in a very short span of time. As long as some people get it, I've succeeded. Thank you for your kind words.

The cast is superb! The acting is impeccable! The premise is intriguing, exciting and mysterious! The effects create a beautifully believable advanced underwater setting that draws the viewer in and refuses to let go! Please continue this incredible journey. So many questions are demanding to be answered! Not since the days of Sea Hunt, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea and SeaQuest 2032 have I seen and thoroughly enjoyed an “aquaventure” of this caliber! FUTUREDUDE managed to hook me and reel me onboard in slightly over 30 minutes! Bravo to Jeffrey Morris and Sealab Productions! In the words of Oliver Twist… “please sir, I want some more”.

My fiancee and I really enjoyed this film. I'm a film buff, and I loved the concept that perhaps the only way we would survive an extinction level event might be a subsea habitat. It is from this film, indeterminate whether or not the apocalypse is natural or something that hits us from space because supervolcanoes can throw matter far into the sky - but it is clear that if we're not struck by a large enough comet or asteroid the oceans could be the only thing that would survive. Well cast, well acted, well directed and a plot that is not only intriguing but also deeply plausible. My favorite scene was the dark, frightening airplane slowly descending into the depths. We are really looking forward to this story continuing and hope to see more from the director. Two thumbs up!

This is excellent , Bruce Davidson was in the greatest sci fi film ever: The Lathe of Heaven.The 1980 version is the original, true to the book. Bruce (the white hair)was a young man and was the lead actor. It's not well known, but worth the watch (Greatest movie ever). If you have a Sci Fi soul watch it, or read it Ursula K. Le Guin is the author.

I contributed to the crowd funding for the film back in 2015 and got my copy of the short then. After all this time, it seems unlikely that it will ever be finished. I hope I'm proven wrong.

This is fantastic! Really hope to see this as a series! I have only one quibble: 2029 is only 7 years away, it's quite a stretch to imagine this sort of project and infrastructure would be around in that time, they would have needed to be planning and budgeting years ahead. Tweak it to 2049 or something, that would be far more believable. Otherwise, bravo!

Great storytelling with visuals that made the ocean a character in this film. I thoroughly enjoyed the dynamic and evolving chemistry between the two characters. It was good to see Bruce Davison in a supporting role. Even without going onto the station proper, it was one of the finest undersea bases I have ever seen depicted in a film of any caliber. This was a great indie film, and I hope we get to follow the aftermath of the cataclysm that will change all of their lives, forever...
