A guy finds out he has an illegitimate brother, then maybe it’s a twin, and then maybe a clone– oh wait, that takes over an hour to suspect.
Fuck this movie; it’s awful.

Something about a boy in the 70s wandering around and a girl from earlier who also wandered around because reasons and things happen but they’re not exciting so just give this a miss.
I don’t know what the fuck these people were thinking, but this is beyond confusing and awful.

A standard broken-family Disney movie, but with magical thinking.
God damn this is a low-effort piece of shit.

In a dystopic future akin to Brave New World – (1932 book), by Aldous Huxley, everyone is lost in a virtual reality, playing a game to take control of the world’s largest corporation.
This movie is parasitic to the childhoods of old men and permanent-children. It’s worth a watch if you’re over 40, otherwise it’ll be a fairly confusing mess of references.
Inspired by Ready Player One – (2011 book), by Ernest Cline

Inspired by the story of the forty-seven rōnin . If you don’t know it, then don’t look that up. I can’t give a description without spoiling it. Consider yourself lucky to have a fresh mind.
This is a patient yet tense movie. I have next to no notes, because there’s really nothing to write or even think about. Recommended, though not “highly recommended”, as there are a lot of movies which execute this general manly-man theme extremely well. Though it’s not among its number, anyone who likes the samurai genre should give this a watch.

As a commentary on Edward Snowden or WikiLeaks or some such, a list, that somehow exists, is out in the clear and being hunted by various spies.
It would have made a huge difference had this not been portrayed as a flashback/debriefing. Because of this complete failure in storytelling, there was no sense of risk at all; an important part of a spy movie like this.

Netforce, a United States federal agency, tracks major hacking activities on the internet that point toward major criminal activities.
Definitely a TV-movie. Mediocre, and only moderately interesting. Definitely missing key elements from the also-boring book.
