Some dudes build a machine that does stuff.
It’s interesting, but I wouldn’t really recommend it if you like movies that make sense.

Nothing could possibly go wrong in an amusement park populated by robots.
A good-ish movie, which must have been spectacular at the time because of its original themes and spectacular presentation. It holds up very well over the few centuries since its release.

A bereaved scientist walks universes to find his still-alive wife.
While it’s good, it’s the sort of good you really only need to see once, because it duplicates and triplicates itself until you are numbed to the very obvious core idea.

- Warning: It’s a passion-project, and yet they didn’t get the audio sync done consistently.

Years ago, a city was shaken by two super-brothers having a super-spat, but their legend lives on in a gang whose leader wants to continue the fight.
It’s not particularly superhero and doesn’t really establish any sort of franchise. It’s not bad, and it’s not great; it’s just fine. It’s vanilla, and sometimes that’s just what you want.

Humanity is raised by goblins, and one in particular is brought into a secret organization to help find a towel.
Neat.

Stuff and a guy does things and there’s a guy who likes riddles for some reason.
Nothing is explained. This is about as interesting as it’s color scheme.

A missing father leaves clues that lead to a mysterious building that leads to other worlds.
While it doesn’t feel slow, it ultimately doesn’t get far enough to come across as anything other than a pilot episode for a TV series. Not recommended, but it’s good enough that for people who are vaguely interested in the science fiction of it, it might be worth watching on a second screen.

Some idiots go grave robbing to protect a thing, leading bad guys there to steal the thing, then a worse guy shows up, then assholes some fight instead of talk, and there is some dialog throughout and with all the action and dead men, no women are even hurt; equality!
Meh. Big fucking meh with a weak script, acting, story.. everything is just weak.

A ruined future world has a mercenary hired to smuggle and protect a person of interest. I guess.
It’s merely okay because it suddenly pivots into some fantasy nonsense. If it immediately established things, or if it eased into it, then it would have been far better. It’s perfectly watchable, but not particularly recommended.

A man’s fiancé is kidnapped, and he and his friend move to rescue her from what turns out to be ancient Chinese mystical forces.
A phenomenal movie. Fun and interesting. The acting is great, the story is great, the setting is great. I easily consider this mandatory viewing, and I think it holds up even after all these years.
