Electricity statusSwedish artist Simon Stålenhag’s 2017 graphic novel is an unforgettable journey through a burnt renovation. The book collects dozens of landscapes as a young woman and a robot spread across the Southwest of the United States, sprinkled with abandoned military and commercial robots and filled only by thin human drones, loses drug-like virtual reality that readers have never seen before. Next to art are short episodes written from the perspective of characters, reflecting the collapse of their world, the nature of consciousness, and the people they love and lose. It’s painful, thought-provoking, weird romance.

Electricity status ★ (1/4 star) |
Therefore, naturally, direct movie adaptations to the Internet Electricity status from Avengers: The Final Game Directors Anthony and Joe Russo are a stupid, unpleasant action movie.
Millie Bobby Brown plays Michelle, a rebellious teenage orphan who lives in the 1994 replacement, where humans win over the robot uprising. Michelle’s painful life in foster care was interrupted when she was visited by a robot containing the consciousness of her late brother. Now Michelle escapes with her escape robot, seeking answers in a walled desert slum, and the mechanical survivor of the robot war is exiled. Along the way, she has fought a fair battle with a pair of Roguish’s scavengers, Keats (Chris Pratt) and his robot, Pal Herman (voiced by Anthony Mackie), and along with the machine, her company has brought doom to humans and robots.
Although Russian and longtime screenwriter Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely retain all the interesting ideas and images Electricity status As dull as dirt, it is the latest tradition of incredibly expensive streaming titles, like they were designed by algorithms and assembled in factories. The stock character performed by Bankable Stars plays a rote story on a muddy canvas that has too many visual effects. The uninterrupted lazy gadgets make kids smile as the needle drips from the 80s and 90s, attracting the nostalgia of their millennial parents. Parts of each section are filled with familiar faces or voices, providing a recognized kick to distract you from the boredom of the actual movie and show how much the movie costs is damn money.
Jason Alexander portrays Michelle’s cartoon evil foster father for five minutes, Colman Domingo plays a single-game character who is just a face on the screen, Patti Harrison appears without lines, and Brian Cox sends out the robot’s pitching machine. Woody Harrelson offers the voice of Mr. Peanut, a snack food mascot that leads the badly destined robot rights movement.

Electricity status Provide a An impressive talent portfolio with about 10% capacity for all. Chris Pratt sleepwalking is his latest Star Lord clone. Giancarlo Esposito plays another face as the killer – a robot, a drone gunner, a character that could have been recorded on a Zoom call. Ke Huy Quan plays two different completely one-off characters. Millie Bobby Brown is strangely convincing, a traumatized young revolutionary (her bread and butter!). Meanwhile, the film’s most impressive performance comes from one of its few lesser-known actors, Woody Norman, whose independence in 2021 bring it on. Norman plays Michelle’s superb brother Christopher whose apparent death in a car accident is an incitement to the movie. Norman appears in only a few scenes (his robot Avatar is a CGI character expressed by Alan Tudyk, because of course it is), but gives the impression that his sister on screen solidifies a star, a great portrait of a brilliant but vulnerable child, a force that he can’t control.
Norman’s scene is the scene of something with the least distraction on the screen. Electricity status With a stunning tonnage reduction, dozens of CGI robots wander around, mumbling to outside jokes, clumsy Newsreels pouring in details, ultimately contributing little (but MTV news anchor Kurt Loder as himself!)
The script promotes the familiar theme of tolerance found in stories about AI, casting its exiled robots into human castes deprived of humans because they can get rid of the situation and be abused. Electricity status There is nothing to add to this conversation, which is the same as the constant low Futt jokes and intentional blood loss mechanized violence, which is what makes it like a child’s movie. Ironically, the film also directly draws viewers to try to put their phones down for a while, a direct insult to Netflix’s strategy of fighting for uninterrupted audience attention. Don’t worry, because this movie won’t convince anyone to do anything, maybe maybe there’s something else to watch.
Although the text is anti-corporate and anti-scholarist, the movie version of the movie version Electricity status The perfect figure for our current ruthless technocrat. It’s one of the most expensive movies ever, perhaps because someone on Netflix C-Suite decided that it would create success, which in turn boosted investor confidence and increased stock prices. Will Netflix actually get or retain $3 million in subscriptions over $3 million due to this movie? Almost certainly not. The movie itself is an evaporating device. No one will remember this except for some producers, but it may not be Colman Domingo or any other qualified actor who contributed 10 minutes of work to expand the network of algorithmic users that will recommend the movie on Netflix.
And, crucially, no one suffers from its major failure and completely assumed business success. Electricity status There is no doubt that Netflix’s top self-reported viewing statistics will be successful at their next shareholder meeting. The Russo Brothers will undoubtedly make another swelling streaming project after the two return to Marvel’s Avengers, no one will care. (remember Grey people? remember fortress?) At best, the film may at least draw more attention to Simon Stålenhag’s work, which should be much better than this Vapid Vapid Cinematic Slop.
