After meeting people trying to make it big in Hollywood movies, a criminal weans himself off of his old life to try it for himself.
Maybe it's because I saw it "back in the day", but even after re-watching it I still really like it.

This is a low-end low-cost laptop. It was on extreme sale, and as it has USB 3.1 it'll do fine.
Very highly recommended: This thing is awesome in every way. Exception: It's childishly-glossy.
2018-06-08 - I used Windows 10 on it.

After a disaster, a pleasure theme park re-opens with a new population of robots.
Although this one has held up well, it does show its age. It's still spectacularly well-made, and especially well-written.
Continued with Beyond Westworld - (1980 show)
Invasion of the Body Snatchers - (1956 movie) has a similar theme.
