All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
... View MoreThe tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
... View MoreThe story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
... View MoreThis movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
... View MoreLots of people sitting with blank expressions, bland elevator music, robotic sex scenes. Niccol really went to some trouble to depict how boring real life will be when everyone prefers to live online.
... View MoreThe film takes place in a 1984 style "contemporary future." The different item is our ability to monitor all of our movements through our own eyes. Law enforcement officials have the ability to hack into our minds and determine innocence or guilt. Sal Frieland (Clive Owen) is one of these such detectives. It isn't long before people start turning up dead, guilty of "white collar" crimes. The memory of the dead person has them seeing themselves being shot and a gun barrel. Brains are being hacked and memories are being transplanted and even erased. Sal suspects Anon (Amanda Seyfried) who is off the radar. She doesn't respond to facial recognition and can erase memories. Sal goes undercover to trap Anon, someone who can hack his brain. The theme being we can't trust the accuracy of digital technology because we can make it do what we want. Interesting science fiction film. Wish it had a better lead in. Guide: F-word, sex, nudity (Amanda Seyfried + others)
... View MoreVery interesting movie which is keeping you focused and on your toes till the very end. It is not the block buster Sci-Fi type of movie with not much visual effects but the story line make up to it. The actors play their roles very good and I will stop here before writing any spoilers....... P.S : If you like movies like Predestination then you will like this one for sure.
... View MoreCharacters are two dimensional, but not even in a stylish way. Predictable men fight over being the saviour of a woman. The women in the film are just objectified.
