A workaholic can’t deal with being entitled and bored.

Really REALLY boring. I could have written it so much better that it’s depressing to have watched.

A girl withdraws into her imagination to numb herself from abuse.

Quite a good movie, that’s made even better because average people were confused by it. This movie has a whole bunch of strange tags which all make sense if you think about it. You probably don’t want to think too hard about it, because it’ll hurt your heart.

A military man is enlisted into a mission to save Chicago United States from a terror attack.

A fantastic, emotional, movie. This has all the elements of quality which make a movie truly great.

  • There’s a lot of .. Spanish?
  • FIXME – If re-watched, ensure subtitles work.

A man afflicted with precognition thinks that injecting gallium will help him save the people he loves likes.

Movies like this lean very heavily on acting and subtleties of storytelling which this movie simply lacks in enough intensity to make it stand out from a student’s short film. This is a hard pass even for people who like these basic ideas.

A girl goes insane or maybe it’s aliens; who knows.

It had a lot of hope, but the writer changed anti-psychotic prescriptions mid-way and the movie went stupid.
