I.S.S. sounds like a movie designed for me… a total Gravity aficionado. Give me more realistic Low Earth Orbit (or high, or on Mars… I’m easy) movies and I would be a happy camper. But a (Russian) bear came along … Continue reading
Foe is one of the few movie trailers I’ve seen in recent years… and it’s both a curse and a saving grace to my viewing experience of this rather plodding film. It’s set in 2065 where humanity is just starting … Continue reading
Aporia is a Hulu low budget sci-fi time manipulation film that muddles its way through low ambition scenario in a dour yet sometimes lovely way. Judy Grier plays a wife and mother who loses her husband only to discover a … Continue reading

Awareness is a Spanish sci-fi action flick on Amazon Prime Video about people with psychic powers and the factions who want to stop or control them. You’ve seen this movie before… but it’s pretty sure you haven’t. It thinks it’s … Continue reading
