Review of Upgrade (2018) by Jonlloyd A — 16 Aug 2018
Honestly, I did not know what to expect with "Upgrade." I did, however, know that I wanted it to be great thanks to the reviews. I wanted to give this film either a 3.5/5 stars or 4/5. I really wanted to and I almost did.
The story was pretty good, though slightly predictable. A story of a man whose body and mind were invaded by a robot in a tech-centered (and beautifully built) world? Who would hate/dislike that? Sadly, that's where my praises end. The moment Eron was introduced, I knew that he was going to be the villain and, after an hour, I knew that STEM is somehow involved in his schemes. Also, all the characters were just semi-interesting, except for STEM.
THE FIRST 37 MINUTES OF THE FILM WERE THE DEFINITION OF THE WORD "BOREDOM." In my opinion, a movie can be bad as long as its not boring. CAUSING BOREDOM is a movie's greatest sin.
