Rating: 9/10 --
...one of the best science-fiction films of this past year and further proof that female directors know how to deliver on genre films.

Rating: 3/4 --
Achieves much on a relatively meager budget (it has an impressive futuristic visual design), and the last half hour is so irresistibly creepy that it's sure to invoke discussion after the screening.

Rating: B- --
As in a lot of good sci-fi, the movie is set in a particular world, but driven by the characters that inhabit it.

The film is beautiful, quiet, and has a really great performance by James Urbaniak.

The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Advantageous isn't going to win any awards for visual effects (this is a modestly budgeted film), but the writing, directing and performances are so strong that they elevate the film far beyond a simple twist on a classic trope.

Unfortunately, the stilted script and portentous direction make Advantageous, a film written and directed by Asian-American women, a missed opportunity.

ADVANTAGEOUS is a science fiction film with a much higher budget for art direction than it has for special effects.
