A bunch of friendless losers are brought together to fight in an augmented reality military simulation.

While not bad, it’s ultimately fair at best.

With the power of Nietzsche, a barbarian-turned-warrior seeks revenge on those who killed his people.

This movie ROCKS. Very thoughtful stuff.

People shoot guns in a desert, accidentally triggering an alien plot.

It’s simple and low-budget in a sea of fair movies. You could waste your time more poorly, but I still can’t recommend this.

The world has been selectively-nuked somehow, an EMP is actually a virus or something, and people are being mind controlled somehow I think, and a man is an exception somehow. I don’t get it.

It has a strange unevenness to it, where it’s not light enough to be bubblegum and not serious enough to be.. serious. It does keep on going, with no pause to let you think about how stupid or strange things out.

The world is “running out of energy” somehow, and a space station is meant to create free energy somehow, but it ends up being more complicated than they realize.

Not highly recommended; a fair movie.

A man is kidnapped and forced to unlock his super powers to save the world.

It essentially changes genre as though it’s trying to add a twist to things, but that doesn’t work. It’s a blend of a few other ideas, and it doesn’t execute them particularly well.

Immigrants aren’t just takenr jerbs, but takenr whole planet.

A nice watchable movie. A shorter version of this would have been a great pilot for a whole series.

What if Superman became evil right at puberty?

I don’t know how to classify this movie. It’s got a lot of drama and mystery to it, has some horror but only later, has some action but only at the end.. it’s kinda interesting but doesn’t show or say anything really. I’m going to flag this as disliked because it has no particular appeal.
