I wish Fantastic Four had been more like this
People here have commented that The Signal reminded them of The Matrix or Dark City or Truman Show. I would add to this list Fantastic Four, the movies (and comic books), where a bunch of kids gets superpowers after being subjected to some mysterious force or signal. The same thing basically happened in The Signal. But The Signal went much more deeply into the origin of the force and also the psychological effect that the change had on the kids. Fantastic Four could have been a more intelligent movie if it had dealt with these topics in a similar manner.
