A handful of Nazi scientists have toiled in secret to find and use a ring kept by some Americans in Egypt which they believe leads to an advanced civilization.

A rehash of other ideas done in a somewhat more amateur way, with a cheap ending as a prequel to either the original movie or series. Interesting to watch if you're a fan of the franchise but absolutely skippable if you're not.

Plucky tertiary crewmates do stuff and things I guess.

Le yawn.

A smart drug addict consults for the FBI.

It's watchable, but meh. Just watch the movie because this show is like a discount The Blacklist - (2013 show).

Based on Limitless - (2011 movie)

A capsule is launched into space with the first British man in space, only to have problems.

Thirty minutes in it's still slow an uninteresting.

A mad scientist wants to see farts or whatever.

Kinda weakly interesting I guess, but not recommended.

The only passenger on an extremely long voyage learns the trip isn't what she thought it would be.

Definitely worth a watch; good, though not great.

People are interviewed about a major new scientific discovery.

This documentary-style sure doesn't get to the point.

In a future where limiting words somehow makes people happy, some are still enthralled by contraband media.

Moody and good; recommended. It has more literary references than any three years worth of movies.

After losing his wife, a scientist goes mad and begins cloning her.

I can't comprehend how anyone could deal with the conflict of tones in this movie. It's definitely not light-hearted or a romance; it's main focus is dark as all hell. Definitely not recommended.
