Don't Look Deeper - (2020 movie) image

Entertainment > Movies >

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22811298/

A high school girl discovers she is not.

A simple story lines that's still decent bubblegum, but it sneaks in jarring wokeness at the tail end so it's not really recommended. It could and should have done much better, even with the woke in mind.

A boy, with the superpower to become invisible yet can't find anything better to do than cheat on his math homework, learns that his super soldier parentage has unresolved history.

A missing father leaves clues that lead to a mysterious building that leads to other worlds.

While it doesn't feel slow, it ultimately doesn't get far enough to come across as anything other than a pilot episode for a TV series. Not recommended, but it's good enough that for people who are vaguely interested in the science fiction of it, it might be worth watching on a second screen.

A man awakens and discovers he is trapped in a low budget movie.

It has no redeeming qualities; pass.

Max Headroom (1987-1988) poster
