In a universe where aliens ruled everything somehow but aren't there now for some reason and humans learned stuff from their remnants somehow, one world has a vault of their stuff for some reason, and.. well anyway there's this girl that this guy wants back because corporations are bad? I dunno, there is shooting.

Another pointless girl power man-bad movie.

Trailer
Inspired by Borderlands - (2009 game) etc.
It tries to be funny but it's not.
There are no straight white Christian men.

A bad single mother raises a selfish daughter who, to get attention, almost commits second-hand genocide and grows into a woman who almost commits genocide again.

Quite watchable. I don't know why other people didn't like it. I didn't find any particular flaws.

The removal of the special immunity on a young man triggers a series of events which summons his father for help.

It's a comedy in that there is a bunch of overacting. It's adequate bubblegum, and I'm glad to see Jean-Claude Van Damme again.

Following agents of a supercomputer.

It's incredibly dark, and I don't mean it's all moody and shit; it's so damned dim it's hard to make most things out.

Military men conspire to steal chemical weapons to threaten Seattle for money as reparations for fallen comrades, and a man is let out of confinement to help an expert disarm them.

Although the main chemical weapons premise makes no sense, it's still a good movie.

Cell phones turn people into zombie bees or something.

A nothing of a movie that makes no sense and has a shit ending. There was unrealized potential, but this is definitely not recommended.

Inspired by Cell - (2006 movie), by Stephen King

There's a bomb in Liam's car, and instead of having a particular set of skills he has two kids.

Yawn.

For people who don't like this movie and bail early: This was made in a time when you can't pause or leave. It's meant to be "bad" to an uncomfortable degree before it begins to make its point(s).
