The anachronisms between the costumes, ice cream cones, and sirens in additional to the weak performances (though not sure script gave the actors anything to actual do) was enough to turn off after first 15 minutes. Dressing actors like it's 1908 mourning but stating it's 1888, while background are wearing 1840's silhouettes, is a mess that distract from any potential story.

I'm not sure if these 1 and 2 ratings are because people didn't see anything blow up or a car chase scene, but this is an excellent presentation of what really happened. Tesla should be credited for many inventions and not Edison, but that obviously didn't happen. I'm glad this movie was made and Ethan Hawke is wonderful.

Not another boring recounting of a mundane life documentary (and I like all types of documentaries including several on Tesla), but a creative blending of Tesla w/contemporary additives (e.g. I liked the bar scene where Edison pulls out his iPhone). Still, many interesting factoids such as Edison having built 121 DC power stations in the US, and many in Europe while trying to discredit AC. We all know that Tesla worked for Edison (which didn't work out well); we all know about Edison promoting DC safety vs. AC execution of both humans & dogs which I thought was presented well. Shown again was the well know Tesla triumph of Chicago1893; his sitting by huge coil, and his Westinghouse backing. Tesla's singing at the end was amusingly fitting given he died destitute alone in a hotel in 1943, age 87. As to how his personality was presented who is to say hundred+ years later.

This is such a strange flick. Some quality actors and period costumes, that is why I didn't give it 1 star. They take some of the most fascinating figures of the late 19th and early 20th century and have them mostly sit around and talk about various boring nonsense. I had zero clue what was going on this entire film. We do get to see JP Morgan play tennis with his family for some reason. In some scenes they make the painted backdrop obvious, no clue why. Culminating with Tesla doing a lame attempt at karaoke of a Tears For Fear song into a modern microphone? What the hell you say? Exactly. I guess they thought this was some kind of art film or whatever, I say don't bother.
