To be honest, I had some rather low expectations concerning this flick but since I have a weak spot for Kurt Russell, I thought I should give it a try anyway. Well, eventually, it was honestly not really good, I’m afraid. Indeed, even though the whole thing had some potential, it was pretty much just a glorified B movie and, to really enjoy it, you shouldn't take it too seriously. I guess the ma... read more

The future kind of sucks. (431 movies items)

"Reason for the future sucking: Humans end up living on a disolate garbage strewn planet, Arcadia 234. The even worse news? Said humans are to be used as target practise, by super soldiers, who were trained from birth, to fight battles and kill. Year it takes place: Unknown, but let's call it the near future, and leave it at that."
