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.
Rebooted into Westworld – (2016 show)
Disambiguation: Scanners, the computer peripherals.

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.

A break-up service has financial troubles caused by love itself.
On a re-watch all this time later, it’s really cringe and difficult to watch. If you’re into this sort of bubblegum “romance” then it’s a definite recommended.

The son of a criminal boss strikes a deal that goes bad, and veteran muscle becomes embroiled in the mess.
It’s standard fare; nothing particularly interesting, but if you like this sort of thing then it’s perfectly watchable.

I don’t know how to describe this without spoiling it.
It’s good because it’s pre-woke and can handle difficult topics.
Let’s face it, this was likely inspired by Kimba the White Lion

A lovestruck girl makes a wish to enter into the world of a prince.
Wholesome if you don’t think about it too much, which is easy to do.
Inspired by The Little Mermaid – (1837 fairy tale), by Hans Christian Andersen

An orphan struggles to survive, all the while working to repair an automaton that prompts an adventure.
Not among the greats, but it’s a quiet, quaint, watchable, movie.
While not steampunk, it does borrow from that flavor.

A reverse-documentary about covid where the good guys win.
Maybe in it’s time it was good, but I tuned out. I guess I’ll watch the rest of the series, but this comes off as forgettably-episodic. Recommended only for people who like the first one, and who would like a bubblegum version of the samey “safe” spy/crime movies.
