Rebirth (2016)
Interesting
Just giving this ten stars to balance out the reviews written by people with an IQ in single digits. Real rating would be 7/10 - it's an interesting movie with several layers, confusing but fun in it's own way and well acted.
Don't listen to people who barely manage to open Netflix. They also have kid's content on the platform, maybe these reviewers should look into that if they can't handle the slightest ambiguity. Movies that don't tell the viewer what to feel and think are not for everyone. I'm content Netflix finances movies like this - it's just a shame the average audience is unable to grasp anything that's a bit out of the ordinary. Maybe they need a Rebirth.
Jupiter Ascending (2015)
Beyond terrible
So bad, bad, bad. I knew I wasn't going to see a good story but this was a mess.
World-Building is terrible, logic inconsistent. Just an explosion every few seconds but why should I care if there are no real stakes, characters or worlds to care about?
Even the visuals are terrible, as they seem to be made by someone with NO taste at all. Convoluted, way to many bright colours and things everywhere, like a bad trip that gives you headache. CGI looks so fake and artificial, nothing seems real, it looks cheap. Embarrassing, really.
Knock Knock (2015)
Funny Games + Women = Lots and lots of butthurt dudes
This movie is on par with Funny Games (it's basically the same premise) only difference is, a guy is the victim and the perpetrators are women. Of course, this version of the story is disliked by some men who can't stomach that, for a change, the victim is not female and the torturer isn't male. Watch if you liked Funny Games and are female / a real man, pass if you're an easily offended male snowflake.
Electric Dreams: Impossible Planet (2017)
Touching
The ending is in no way confusing. It's very, very clear Granny and Norton die on the planet and hallucinate in their last minutes. Earth becomes true for them because they believe in it. The "memories" Norton has of the bike are not his real memories, they are the fuzzy, abstract feeling of home. That's why he feels connected to Granny, because they share the dream of returning and feeling "home".
Chambers (2019)
First world rich millenial teenage angst problems
Confusing (not in a good way), weird dialogue, strange vibe and a lot of questionable overreactions by characters that make zero sense. Maybe it's a cultural issue because I'm not from the US but every single character behaves like a total lunatic.
Plot seems interesting in the beginning until you realize it's all about some overblown first world teenage problems no one in their right mind cares about.
