Hope it's not following me

I really enjoyed this movie. Nowadays, it takes more than a jump scare and some blood to get me to hop out of my seat and pay attention. I need atmosphere and creep factor and this movie delivered.
The old "killer goes after those that have sex in a horror movie" rule gets turned on its head with a new and, dare I say it, modern perspective.

I loved the eclectic, old Polaroid quality of each shot, giving the movie a retro vibe while being futuristic at the same time -- setting the movie in no exact time frame.

Mark Halpern (153 KP) rated Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989) in Movies

Jan 13, 2018

Excellent adventure

The story of two senior high school students who need to pass their oral history exam who get an time traveling phone booth to go and borrow historical figures to help them pass the exam in a really excellent fashion. The movie is full of fun and laughs even though the science is a little bit stretched. The fun of seeing Napoleon at a water park or Gengis Kahn go psycho in a mall dressed like a linebacker is worth the time. George Carlin plays the futuristic man who is tasked with getting them on their way and it makes a nice star cameo.

Extraordinary

Altered carbon offers a unique telling of a futuristic world. Whilst continued if over representative, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer concept. It gives view to the struggle of society. Through a well scripted action packed series. The character developments is done well through the episode. Though the story does seem to lose itself in places where certain lacking details are clearly evident, this is compensated in other parts which brings the episodes back together. This is must watch show, for sci-fi and crime dectice enthusiast. It like a good book, once you start watching you can't stop.
