**Hollywood, this is how you make movies - One of the best sci-fi films of 2018.** I was expecting the IMDB ratings for this science fiction film to be inflated, but after just watching it, i don't think the rating is high enough.\ \ This science fiction film, set in the not-too-distant future, is a low-budget film that puts a lot of this year's films of the same genre to shame. It has allusions to other movies like Robocop and Blade Runner, but stands on its own as it weaves its tale for the viewer. \ \ Right from the start this film was different. It began engaging me in the main character's life in a futuristic world, and it made me care for him. By the end of the first act I was completely engaged, emphasizing with, and rooting for main character, and totally hating on the bad guys. As it played out, it turned out that the film was well paced, exciting, and intelligent.\ \ The cinematography was remarkable, and I was quite amazed at the meticulous work done by the filmmaker to make this tale believable on the screen. In fact, many choices the filmmaker chose demonstrated there was a high intellect behind the production. I enjoyed the shots during the action scenes *hit*, *dodge*, and welcomed the use of CGI, which was not overused and well done. The music and sounds were very well done as well.\ \ All of the actors did an amazing job, most notably the main character, but not limited to all of the antagonists. The acting held my interest the whole way through, and i look forward to seeing all of them acting in the future. \ \ In the end I was completely satisfied with this film. So if you're into science-fiction, be sure to give this one a watch. I think it may have landed in the realm of the cult-classics. But at the very least, this is among the best sci-fi films of 2018. Take note Hollywood - this is how a movie should be done.\ \ 9/10

_Upgrade_ is a visually appealing cyberpunk story with plenty of twists and turns. From the beginning, I was pretty hooked. The setup for this film is done so well, I was really into it. Visually, this movie is a treat. So many creative shots made the film feel fresh and fast paced. The combat is brutal and the way the choreography was crafted in conjunction with the diverse camera angles made each fight feel real and visceral. The plot was really well done, although I could not help but feel a lot of the main story points were taken from Ex Machina, but there is enough diversity that it still feels original. The ending was pretty predictable, but despite that it was still incredibly fun to get there. Overall, I had a great time with this film. It was a fast paced and brutal experience which I am one hundred percent here for. **Score:** _85%_ | **Verdict:** _Great_

**Overall : Unique. Innovative. Fresh. Action-packed. Surprising! Why haven't you seen this yet?!** Upgrade BLEW MY MIND in every way. The fight scenes, the camera work, the writing, the acting, and the twists, were all incredibly well done! Upgrade blends sci-fi, action, mystery, and thriller with moments of horror and humor, producing one EXCELLENT film with twists and turns I never saw coming. Logan Marshall-Green's performance grounds the far-fetched concept in reality with charm, and Leigh Whannell is quickly becoming one of my favorite directors. I can't say enough about this one. One of the best movies of the past five years with a little bit of something for everyone.

**Overall : A fresh action standout with unique characters and excellent fight sequences. The Accountant's numbers just add up!** The Accountant was an unexpected action thriller with unique character choices. Ben Affleck's Chris Wolff is a highly capable and efficient hitman with high functioning autism that leads a double life as a forensic accountant-not a typical main character in an action movie and is handled brilliantly well. However, the true highlight of this movie is the writing making each moment and character feel fresh and memorable. Fantastic action sequences and an outstanding cast, along with the exceptional writing, elevates The Accountant well above average action flicks to a special must-see action standout.

Upgrade is Blumhouse's first entry into science fiction and it is outstanding. Disturbing twists, fast-paced action (on speed), cool sci-fi technology, and an outstanding performance by Logan Marshall-Green, the unlucky visitor on Prometheus and in The Invitation.

Low budget, but well done sci-fi. It's not overly cerebral; there's a consistent amount of action throughout. Worth a watch.
