Reviews
"Debug" received mixed to negative reviews from critics, with many noting its intriguing premise but criticizing its execution. On IMDb, the film holds a rating of 4.3/10 from users, indicating a generally lukewarm reception. Critics often praised the setting and concept, remarking on the claustrophobic atmosphere of the space station and the potential of the AI antagonist. However, several reviews from platforms such as Rotten Tomatoes pointed out that the film struggled with pacing and character development, reducing the impact of its suspense elements. The dialogue and performances were sometimes seen as underwhelming, detracting from the immersion into the high-tech horror scenario. Metacritic scores are limited, but available critiques highlight that while the film has moments of tension and creative sci-fi ideas, it ultimately falls short of delivering a consistently engaging narrative. Fans of the genre may appreciate the film's ambiance and thematic take on digital threats, but it may not satisfy those looking for a polished thriller experience.
