Upgrade (2018)
Just plain AI fun.
Presentation:
Modern aesthetics fit this futuristic AI film. Something about the film looks like an indie film, but the camera movement accomplishes some of the tightest action sequences from recent memory.
Story:
The plot tells another story of an AI gone rogue and violent, which you'd think would be a bore but it doesn't matter when the sequences are so much fun. From the camera movement and acting, you really believe the protagonist reluctantly is possessed and incorporates a few good laughs with it. The ending is nothing to rave about, but i can't imagine anyone regretting watching this one.
Conclusion:
A good time, mindless sci-fi fun. Although this is confusingly higher ranked than more substantial thrillers, it doesn't take itself seriously, never pretending it is more than just entertainment. It's just a good time with good chuckles, better than what you bargained for.
