The removal of the special immunity on a young man triggers a series of events which summons his father for help.
It's a comedy in that there is a bunch of overacting. It's adequate bubblegum, and I'm glad to see Jean-Claude Van Damme again.

Corporate and terrorist factions fight over the technology to resurrect people shortly after death.
Even-toned from acting, to pace, to the subtleties of world-building; excellent.

A quirky young woman crushes on a weird artsy guy.
This is quirkier than it's characters, and is worthy of earning seventeen times its budget.

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.

The past returns to haunt a retired crime boss.
Quite watchable. I think it's trivially surpassed by a lot of movies, but this has a reasonable simplicity without creating too much of a superhuman protagonist.
