In a world where lifespan replaces currency, one man is given more than his due, upsetting the balance of powers.

Good story, pacing, and acting.

A criminal group sedates and enters the dreams of targets to steal their secrets.

I'm sure it's wonderful and nuanced for lots of people, but to me it's just okay. I find it rather obvious and uninteresting.

A prequel to Star Trek - (1966 show) but with canon revisionism.

Boss girls, shit exposition, sprinkled with wokeness, too many distractingly-ugly women.

  • Properly titled Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

A corporation takes advantage of a grieving mother by using her to test a prototype robot in the guise of a little boy played by the actor from The Sixth Sense - (1999 movie) playing himself but in this movie.

Maybe in context it was special, but it's pretty obvious and tedious, and the incredibly drawn-out and potentially multiple-endings fucking suck man. If you're into robots, you should totally watch this.. once.

A man flies a spaceship to earn the money to save his daughter, but an accident strands him .. back in time somehow? I don't get it, and after an hour the movie doesn't explain it either.

This plays like a formulaic PG-13 movie; not recommended.

  • Trailer
  • Not particularly a time travel movie, it just happens in the past for some reason.
