Writer/Director Khalil Sullins simulates minds with his felicitous feature film debut of the uniquely engaging Sci-Fi thriller “Listening.” A thought provoking and visually pioneering addition to the annals of cerebral science fiction films, “Listening” captures the double edged essence of a fledgling one-way mind reading breakthrough turned government mind control product. It visually achieves a big budget feel on a smaller budget and the core characters are perfectly flawed, making the entire experience much more interesting. David (Thomas Stroppel) his associate Ryan (Artie Ahr) are making strides with their five-finger discounted hodgepodge of a garage assembly, but when the beautiful Jordan (Amber Marie Bollinger) joins the team the brain hacking project starts progressing more rapidly than they could have imagined, for better or for worse. As the team delves deeper into the vast power of ‘listening’ to one’s mind, so comes an increasingly grim implication of what it means for their friendship and for the future of America.
