90 minutes of runtime with a one-line script

Fucking Predator, literally.
-
Regular Tarantino crap, even though he only directed a fourth of this. His lousiness infects other directors.
-
What’s in the box (office)? The perfect Halloween film, if you like your candy laced with rusty razorblades, for your mind.
-
A Catherine Keener meta film. She proves anyone can be typecast as anything.
-
Modern (about my age) Bond doesn’t really deviate from the formula. An above average action film.
-
An Australian plays William Wallace, another Hollywood stunt casting choice. Robert Bruce is a minor character, but he was more important overall.

Who would have thought, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is a mere variation on this epic tale of piracy.
-
A batshit insane old-school Jackie Chan film, but with a larger budget. The freaking hovercraft…
-
Paul W. S. Anderson cuts his teeth on he does best: silly videogame adaptations with atrocious CGI and Z-list actors. The only film involving Traci Lords where people get to keep their clothes on (except Blade?).
-
The old Gibsonian universe in a nutshell (with different names): Keyboard Cowboys; 320GB of hot RAM; Street Samurai; Muscle for the Yakuza; Ono-Sendai decks; Tessier-Ashpool corporations; AI with Swiss citizenship.
-
Strange for cops to murder black people on a random traffic stop? Over spurious reasons, for nothing? Yeah, the good old 90’s…

A slow Crash, out of a gun battle. It’s really all about the heists.

Sandra Bullock plays Wolfenstein on her Mac, while in Liberal US, system hacks you!
-
Hack the Planet! Hack the Planet!
-
Riot Girl is tight! Meek girl learning to face her oppressors is goddamn tight! Kangaroo-men are hopping mad!
-
Duelling assassins working for a unknown messager on the internet. When yet another female criminal enters the fray, their allegiances twist and turn. But the bad guy is still the bad guy, victoria o muerte.
-
Part of the holy trinity of classical anime: this, Akira and Cowboy Bebop. Innocence is also great.
-
Starts with a incredible scene and manages to hold up pretty well through the whole film.
