Creative and brilliantly executed!

Jonah - (2024 movie) image

Entertainment > Movies >

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt19773302/

Two low-budget filmmakers take on the story of a supposedly-abducted child who was returned a cripple.

It's quite good as a drama but ultimately unsatisfying as anything else. The final strides of it do not work.

Something about multiple AI personalities taking over a human.

Meh.

  • Trailer
  • IMDB has a rating of 16+ which to my knowledge isn't a thing.

A dying woman does drugs and hallucinates that she's a time traveller.

A tight time-loop movie that's slow and mediocre.

  • Trailer
  • Not actually science fiction
  • Not actually a comedy

A classic ruined world utopic city movie.

It's fair. It's a basic young adult movie with some woke messaging and diversity casting in the old "rebel and save the world" template.

  • Trailer
  • Straight white Christian men are only bad guys.

A freelancing former U.S. Intelligence Agent tries to track down a mysterious package that is wanted by the Irish and the Russians.

Moody and consistently-good. Lots of car chases.

A psychiatrist's world is turned upside-down when his patients join a global trend of suicide and violence.

Moody and with great acting. This is definitely strange, especially because of its torturously patient story arc. I can't recommend this for everyone because it's more weird-drama than science fiction. It's one of those "watch once" movies.

An everyman is stalked by an unusual comic book collector who tries to convince him of his greatness.

Patient and coaxing; wonderful from many angles.

  • Trailer
  • Not inspired by any particular comic book, but on the idea itself.

In a universe where aliens ruled everything somehow but aren't there now for some reason and humans learned stuff from their remnants somehow, one world has a vault of their stuff for some reason, and.. well anyway there's this girl that this guy wants back because corporations are bad? I dunno, there is shooting.

Another pointless girl power man-bad movie.
