My Screen Times

  Plot Atlas Shepherd, a brilliant data analyst with a deep distrust of artificial intelligence, joins a mission to capture a terrorist AI with whom she shares a mysterious past. But when the mission doesn't go as planned, her only hope of saving humanity from AI is to trust another AI. R eview   An action packed, a new Netflix sci-fi movie starring Jennifer Lopez, "Atlas" explores familiar sci-fi territory with an AI gone rogue. There is nothing we haven't seen before. CGI is used extensively for world-building and action scenes, are adequate but not particularly thrilling. The alien world depicted often feels more like a video game environment than a fully realized cinematic universe.  Movies explore if humans and AI could co-exist or not. The plot revolves around Lopez's character, Atlas Shepherd, who initially distrusts AI but gradually learns to trust it through her interactions with the suit's AI. Although I enjoy the conversation about the difference be...

  Plot The story is set in a dystopian near-future America in a civil war. A team of military-embedded journalists traveling from New York to Washington, D.C to interview the President before rebel factions attack the White House. Review   The movie does not provide a clear explanation of how and why the war started. All we know is in the distant future, some Western forces are trying to kill the president. So, people looking for political reasons might not be satisfied. As four journalists journey across the country to interview the president, they encounter a lawless, apocalyptic world divided by small armed groups due to the civil war. It is on the road trip that the film successfully shows us the war's impact on civilians and the harsh realities of life in a fragmented America as realistically as possible. The film also successfully shows us the terror and sacrifices journalists endure to get their stories. It showcases the dangers of their profession, especially during wa...

Review I love how the film explores the lives of stunt performers who perform dangerous stunts but they are not appreciated enough. These unsung heroes put their bodies on the line but their works are often undervalued. This film is a love letter to all stunts performers around the world. The film also has the right mix of action, comedy and romance. Jokes are well-timed with a lot of movies references. I had a few giggles.The chemistry between Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt is charming.The action sequences are great. We get to Ryan Gosling set on fire, thrown out of the windows, falling from ...

But things don't turn out the way he planned. Review  A single-location setting and documentary style immerses viewers in the live broadcast experience. I also like the use of different aspect ratios (4:3 for the TV episode and black and white for backstage scenes) .The film doesn't rely on jump scares but instead builds a creepy atmosphere through themes of satanic and demonic possession. Comedy elements are presented throughout enhancing a live TV show feel.Performance are great. It is good to see David Dastmalchian in ...
