Great Film overall
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Was just amazed on a big story which had 7 fantastic stories in between. Totally recommended.
1. Every time one of the commandos is incredibly inept, have a shot. 2. Every time one of the siblings has better luck than Domino (from deadpool 2) have a shot. 3. Every time the CAB forgets the tech they used in a previous scene, have a shot.I'm one hour in, and if I were playing this game, I'd probably be dead.Like, seriously, the world is overpopulated, overlord government agencies would have the pick of the litter, why are all the shutins living on 1/7th the resources using better tech than the government, out fighting commandos, and surviving 4 story falls into empty dumpsters? Seriously, the overlords should just clone these siblings and use them as their murdersquads.This writing is trash, bring a six pack and a friend, and have a good time making fun of it while you watch it. I don't get the 1s and 10s in the reviews here, this is a solid 6 effort if you approach it like a comedy rather than a serious suspense scifi dystopia it seems to have been trying to do.
It's rare I find myself wanting to leave a raving review halfway through a movie, but I did with this one (I made myself wait until it finished, and even after a few days I'm still thinking about this brilliant movie, so here I am haha). The brief write-up offered on my satellite tv box said it was about 7 girls trying to survive in a one-child per family world, it was a sci-fi/thriller, and that was it. But I'm SO glad I watched it! Just annoyed I watched it alone!The film was surprisingly more action-packed than I thought it would manage to be, and the actress playing all of the girls did a brilliant job, so did the younger actress. The twists were surprising. I found myself immersed in the film right from the start, and even when you have that moment "they said the title of the movie!" it quickly passes because you don't want to miss what they're saying. The jumping from present time to past was stitched together well, not jarring at all, and explained enough without making the viewer feel stupid or it was overdone. The intro explains enough and sets the scene well without dragging it on, just getting on with the story - loved that.Seeing the technology they used wasn't that far fetched considering how fast our technology is advancing these days. It was creepy in that sense.I suggest you watch it. Ignore the bad reviews, just go into it expecting nothing and you'll be blown away. Very well done film, ended up upping my rating from 9 stars to 10/10.
Honestly was not expecting this movie to be that good when I saw the trailer. I usually can guess the endings of Netflix movies. But with this movie, even though there weren't any major plot twists, i was impressed by the plot. The acting was very well done. I think this movie deserves a higher score.
