While I am not a roboticist or much of a programmer, I adore STEM and movies about smart, driven people. So while Rule Breakers has some filmmaking and screenwriting problems, they aren’t big enough to have wiped the near constant … Continue reading
There’s a joke somewhere about the title of this film and how it starts strong but falls apart by the end. It’s an easy one too… this screen life flick is awfully… bloated. Har-de-har-har. Anyhow, Bloat is about a military … Continue reading
