A Mexican crime family steals alien technology and wrecks havoc.
A mediocre superhero movie, which in today’s times makes it spectacular. Highly recommended as a bubblegum movie.

College students LARPing as revolutionaries set a hacker up, but he causes a shitstorm in an agent training prison.
This is pretty good. It’s essentially a Dutch revisitation of the concepts in the French movie La Femme Nikita – (1990 movie). It’s straightforward and so it seems fairly low budget.

A coal miner survives an apocalypse, but his struggles are only beginning.
Patient and excellent. A solid movie that survives its times. Also good for the terminally woke, to rub in the fact that this content has been mainstream since forever.

A beta tester stumbles into software with a back door also used by high-level hackers.
In many respects it aged poorly, but it has a reasonable core message.
