A new wave of tailor-made drugs sweeps over Detroit, whose even bigger problem is a corporate takeover of the city.

While interesting, it’s not ground-breaking like the first was.

A mortally-wounded cop is used as the foundation to build a police robot meant to be a tool for control but whose artificially-repressed memories and inerrant awesomeness surface to save the day.

This was a great movie in the day, and I’d bet I’m biased in saying it’s still great.

A one-room horror where angels descend to destroy all of mankind because god left, but a baby is to be the saviour of all mankind.

Meh. This isn’t a particularly good movie.

Dominion – (2014 show) is based on Legion. I wouldn’t consider this movie mandatory viewing before watching Dominion. In fact, I would recommend against viewing this movie because the series is so much better.

A man escapes death by teleporting himself to an extremely-distant planet, whose residents went mad from an unknown plague.

Really great for what it is, but its genre is not my cup of tea.

Great movie, but the main actor’s performance is absolutely horrible.

Meh, not bad but not great.

Medeocre “plot”. It’s more of a generic dystopian movie and only good for the atmosphere.

to be re-watched for a summary

Though it’s definitely recommended for most people to watch and understand, I didn’t particularly like it because I knew everything in it and wasn’t entertained, and so I sold it at a profit.

summary TODO
