A girl goes insane or maybe it’s aliens; who knows.
It had a lot of hope, but the writer changed anti-psychotic prescriptions mid-way and the movie went stupid.

An asshole anchorman is sent to a little town to do a fluff story on Groundhog Day, but karma bites him in the ass when the town gets snowed-in.
A fantastic movie not just for the usual things, but for the execution of its idea. Unlike so many movies that have its elements, this one stays grounded and accessible. This movie is well-loved and highly recommended.
- This movie has its title because it’s set on Groundhog Day.

The writers and producers of 12꞉01 – (1993 movie) believe their work was plagiarized by this movie.

From a future destroyed by plague, a prisoner “volunteers” to be sent back in time to fetch pre-infection samples.
A great movie that stands apart both from its contemporaries and even from movies of today. It touches upon a lot of topics I find interesting in movies.
- Inspired by La Jetée – (1962 movie), written by Chris Marker
- See also 12 Monkeys – (2015 show)
- TODO – watch with the commentary
-
TODO – At the end of the making-of is a secret menu and more stuff.

This is the sort of movie that I can’t explain without spoiling it.
It ought to be started at 17:10 with zero introduction.
The fact that I can write that with confidence should speak loudly as to its quality. It doesn’t have enough “content”, and so it feels drawn out. If you are passionate about reality-questioning movies, then for sure see this. Otherwise, pass.

A machine somehow shows that a piece of a person goes somewhere else, and stupid people assume there is an afterlife.
A straightforward drama-type movie.
What’s the opposite of brain candy? It numbs the mind in a kind of monotone hum. While I originally said “terrible writing for a terrible world with terrible characters” on second viewing maybe that’s harsh; I actually kinda like it.
