Sci Fi fan?
Looks like a good one! I can’t even recall that last really good sci fi movie I have seen. Cast and plot a winner. Let’s hope it’s as good as it looks!
Don’t let me down Johnny! Report back here with your review if/when you see it. 
Yeah its on the list, Joe Rogan interviewed Google’s chief engineer who also so happens to be the world’s leading futurist for his show about this very thing, brain uploading.
Thought I’d give this a bump as it opens around here tomorrow and I figured a few folks might give it a peek. The early reviews are not kind, as in “strong out of the gate but limps across the finish line.”
unfortunate, but common with the majority of US made movie these days. It’s like they only think they have to make half a movie these days, or they only want to pay the good writers for half the movie, or what ever, but that’s the norm for movies these days. Prime example, the last sci fi movie (Elysium)we had a long thread on after I reviewed it: started off strong, finished weak and as if written and directed by two different people. It’s like the B team comes in mid way through the movie making process or something.
But guys . . . its JOHNNY DEPP! You know like Pirates of the Caribbean meets The Matrix.
:jester:
I am much more interested in these two coming out.

And this one.
Both of those look great !! I hope they are as good as the trailers.
S.M.
No Terry Gilliam fans here?
Besson and Gilliam always good for a large bag of popcorn.
Never a dull moment. Probably because neither does the "Design-by Committee’ type moviemaking which lobotomizes anything with a creative spark.
Looks like the best of the lot in my opinion.
meh, it was enough to go see. I was getting rdy to be pissed about 20 minutes from the end but johnny pulls it out with a double plot twist.
Now that looks like the must see movie.
That looks like something worth watching.
So, they took Professor Xavier, and added hair and tits - smart.
Watched The Machine last night. Another sc fi movie with a ton of potential, that does not deliver like Depp’s recent movie Transcendence which could/should have been a great sci fi movie for real sci fi fans but falls flat.
The Machine: Has some interesting visuals, and some good scenes, and decent acting, but it has various plot flaws and lacks a cohesive theme what it wants to be and too many “WTF?” moments: C+/B-
Anyone see this? Report?
Watch Edge of Tomorrow, which is sort of renamed as “live die repeat” because studios are strange and sometimes rename movies between the theater and home video release.
Probably the most underrated movie this summer.
Agreed. We went in not expecting much and left extremely happy with the film.
Who knew being run over by a jeep could be so hilarious!
