Никола Тесла was Serbian, so I expected the actor that played him to speak that language but oh, surprise, he speaks ... English.

Why is Nikola Tesla singing _"Everybody Wants to Rule the World"_ by Tears for Fears? This movie is insulting to Tesla, and I'm sure he is turning in his grave.

Green screen was so obvious in every part, as if the singing? I mean WTF? What purpose did that have? Nevertheless it was a nice idea to make that movie, but I waited something better!

@plyratzis95 The obvious greenscreen was intentional. I have no idea why though.

An atypical biography that incorporates anachronisms (Google, mobile phones ...) that introduce some of the inventions developed years later from Tesla's research. It is a risky bet, sometimes confusing, but which achieves a sense of unreality that fits perfectly into that world of materialized dreams. It is the story of a frustrated creator, which is, also for the viewers, frustrating.

There's little reason to try and beat Bowies Tesla (Christopher Nolans "The Prestige" 2006) but Ethan Hawke doesn't even try. I expected better from him. This was either made by the hands of a depressed director or an unqualified producer -- or an AI deepfake movie making program. It feels like somewhere within the tesla coil of this film production schedule a major aspect got gutted from an original version and boiled down, like a transylvanian bat, to this tortured piece of crap. Think Welsch Rabbit in a Duck Soup.

Just interesting enough to keep you from turning it off. The karaoke thing was cringe worthy and completely pointless. Considering the history I expected better than this artsy-wannabe slog.

Tesla seems to have been a very eccentric kind of person. I think that even the style of this movie might reflect that eccentricity, which i found to be interesting and unique.
The reason I only rated it a 6 instead of 7 or 8 is due to what felt like a lack of more substance. it felt like we barely scratched the surface of the man named Tesla.

How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!

How can you ruin a biopic about one of the most interesting inventors of the past century? This dreck runs a clinic. Make sure your Hungarian scientist never has an accent. Spend so little on sets that you literally have some of the scenes acted out in front of DRAWINGS or slides projected on a screen (not kidding). Base your script on less facts than Wikipedia has on your subject. Then, screw up time so Edison carries an iPhone and Tesla sings a song from the Eighties on Karaoke night. In short, push your credibility off the table so you can't trust the film even slightly. Such an opportunity lost with great actors, but a horrendous script and dreadful production. 2/10

I have found a huge blooper. Kyle MacLachlan takes out his iPhone before they cut!! And nobody in the production noticed. Idiots! ;)

@atlantis14 This was not an error, it is intentional. At several points in the movie, modern devices are used.

A semi interesting take on Tesla, but overall, this was hardly electrifying.

This movie is as if the 1980's and the 1880's were mashed together into one. A slow paced, incomplete and try-to-be creative, but not very convincing, story about the life of brilliant inventor Nicola Tesla who was ahead of his time.
Besides the acting power of Hawke, and some (questionable) creative choices, there is not much here.
