It could have been an 8 with better editing and a better crafted last 1/3rd of the movie.
In short:
If you are all about the effects, this movie isn't for you. If you like low budget and well crafted movies, this is. CInematographically speaking it isn't aced, not even close (editing, pacing, lighting, camera shots etc - all could be better), though with that being said most areas are above anticipated for this kind of movie.
And it does somehow feel somewhat fresh to this type of movie, maybe because it focuses on the character study and does that well.
For those who think these kinds of things are far away; look up OCZ NIA - that is a brain interface for mainstream gamers that came out around 15 years ago. If you ad that to the scientific pair of doctors who made nerve crafted implants to their vertebrates and could actually "trade" feelings this is very close to home when it comes to science that is out there yesteryear.
Pro's
Character study
Somewhat fresh and some chemistry
Good band for the buck versus budget
Con's
Budget
Editing at parts
Varied script or if it was due to editing - some parts could have been done better
