Upgrade Review

Review of Upgrade (2018) by screenqueeen: 👍 3.5/5

Yeah we know how stories like these go. Man hates machine, man stays away from machine. Man gets injured, man still hates machine. Man is offered machine to live how he did before, man takes the offer albeit begrudgingly. Man likes machine now and machine likes man. Man develops trust and then rescinds trust of machine. Machine turns on man.

Still really fucking fun, great kinetic action sequences. production design feels smooth and lived-in but not at the extreme chasm that exists with, say, STAR WARS '77 and its prequels.
