Good not great but a few questions...

I quite liked it, was a mix of various films(highlander,matrix,wanted etc) but just didn't reach the levels of the potential it had to make it stand out

So Nora and Abel where lovers for centuries and had this ability to find each other after rebirth but does that mean when one died the other killed themselves so they could be born and grow up the same age otherwise there ages could always be vastly different as you could potentially die 30 years later.
Did/could they have children, if they did then pretty selfish to kill themselves(if that's what they've been doing) and leave there child behind and if they did have children do they have the same ability to be reborn?
Could Bathurst just use the dethrone bullets on himself then get someone to lock it away in and airtight capsule and dump it in the ocean, or are you still 'alive' inside the microchip aware of what's going on ?

As i said it was good just not great there could be a sequel and if so with a better script it has potential do well.

I had some of the same questions... I don't suppose they could have children; it's just one of those things. Doesn't fit the lifestyle.

I suppose if they have a tolerable age gap (say 15-20 years) they can still make it work. If it is bigger than that, they may commit suicide together and re-born at the same time.

I also thought Bathurst chould have just shot himself with the special bullet and ask old friend Treadway or former love Garrick to drop the chip into the Mariana Trench tied to a large stone. Since you need a new body for the memories and consciousness to return, you're unlikely to be "alive" on the chip. But even if that was the case for those on the shelf, he could have written a bespoke algorithm to shift/del contents and overwrite a couple of thousand times. After all he had no issues with the Believers as such, he just wanted to break his own cycle.

Having said all that, if I had suddenly gained total recall of my previous memories at the age of 15, good luck telling my parents I want to go to Angkor Vat to find my other half. :)

What I didn't get: Bathurst shot Abel with the Dethroner, otherwise he wouldn't have had his own chip in the collection. But the car blew up, so the chip should have disintegrated... That's one for CinemaSins.

I kinda wondered about the "what if we don't die at the same time" thing. Not even sure how that's suppose to work.

What are you talking about? Age of consent is 18 and older is it not?
