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.

In a future where limiting words somehow makes people happy, some are still enthralled by contraband media.

Moody and good; recommended. It has more literary references than any three years worth of movies.

After losing his wife, a scientist goes mad and begins cloning her.

I can’t comprehend how anyone could deal with the conflict of tones in this movie. It’s definitely not light-hearted or a romance; it’s main focus is dark as all hell. Definitely not recommended.

While trying to invent a teleporter, scientists accidentally invent a multiverse-teleporter which one uses to fetch her recently deceased in her-world husband.

Kinda neat, but definitely a TV-movie; not bad, but not recommended.

Somehow people are outfitted with total full-realism augmented reality as a way of putting cameras everywhere and somehow everyone is surprised when they are somehow hacked.

It might have been good, but it requires too much of a suspension of disbelief and it’s confusing; not recommended.

Corporations explore mars and the human heart, link an A.I. with planet-killing weapons, and expect everything to be okay somehow.

It’s confusing and awkward.

How do I even begin to describe a movie that switches themes multiple times? It begins with a poor kid when an ex-con older step-brother returns from prison.

The movie begins at 1:32:00; it would make for a good pilot episode for a show, but this definitely doesn’t work as a movie.
