Don't Look Deeper - (2020 movie) image

Entertainment > Movies >

A high school girl discovers she is not.

A simple story lines that's still decent bubblegum, but it sneaks in jarring wokeness at the tail end so it's not really recommended. It could and should have done much better, even with the woke in mind.

In a future Vancouver, a copy is swept up into politics and stuff and things..

Great effects and environment, but the writing is weak and the acting is atrocious.

A man awakens and discovers he is trapped in a low budget movie.

It has no redeeming qualities; pass.

An unknown event gave alternate-past Victorian Londoners a random superpower, and their numbers became pronounced enough to attract the attention of worried politicians. Or something.

Really interesting! I guess it's worth watching, but it slide sideways and got too strange to follow. It really needed more seasons to figure it's shit out, but the woke brigade MeToo-dogpiled Joss Whedon without evidence so he got shunned.

Survivors of a plague are blind, and the result is a world just unnecessarily shitty enough to set a show in.

I mean.. it's weak. The world building and motivations require me to park my brain and then I just get really distracted watching stupidity.


That's in the movie very briefly twice but has no purpose.

A world is all ruined and planty, and people use plant technology to get by. I guess.

Plants are gross and dangerous. I mean it's a movie I guess, but it's not.. greater than it's grossness.

Synthetic humans are created, but once again philosophers weren't involved, and when some present intelligence and emotion they take umbrage at being slaves.

Adequate, but neither revelatory nor particularly interesting. Not particularly recommended except for people who like the general topic (which is why I made a tag for it).

A ruined future world has a mercenary hired to smuggle and protect a person of interest. I guess.

It's merely okay because it suddenly pivots into some fantasy nonsense. If it immediately established things, or if it eased into it, then it would have been far better. It's perfectly watchable, but not particularly recommended.
