Sci fi

When two sisters find a harmless looking object in the woods, they cannot know what to what extent it will change their world – and ours – forever. The small, black sphere – mysterious, seductive, enticing – conveys a message, a deep profound biological message that will reshape our world, recasting relationships with the universe beyond our wildest dreams and worst nightmares. It holds the key to our destiny. It holds the secret to a new kind of life. It holds the embryo of a plan of alien invasion. It is so much more than just The Device.

I am watching The Device. An independent Sci-fi film. On DVD. Mixed reviews on Amazon. Cheaper there too. A young woman has gone to stay with her big sister and her fiance. There mother had recently passed away. At their childhood home a device is found. It has sinister qualities. I questioned the acting. There are so many actors doing theatre, indie films or going for auditions. We only ever hear about the A List celebrities. I am selling this copy on eBay Sept 2015. You might also like The X-Files, Skinwalker Ranch, Dark Skies, The Pheonix Incident, The Fourth Kind, The Outer Limits. The actors are average looking. Nice breasts on the sisters. I'm sure I read something about time travel or apocalypse. Maybe the package was misleading. I am left wondering about the ending. Written by Jeremy Berg. Cert 15, 5036193040177. 2015 Ruthless Pictures Inc. Angela D'Marco, David S Hogan, Kate Alden. Special features are three audio commentaries.

Antonio Banderas stars in this sci-fi action thriller set in the year 2044. After solar flares damaged the Earth and wiped out the majority of the human population those who survived began to use robots, made by the ROC Corporation, to help them rebuild their lives. The robots are programmed to protect human life and are incapable of altering themselves or their fellow machines in any way. However, when police officer Wallace (Dylan McDermott) reports that he shot a robot because it was modifying itself, ROC insurance investigator Jacq Vaucan (Banderas) comes to believe that there could be a 'clocksmith' who is changing the automata's protocol, allowing them to make alterations. As Jacq investigates further he makes an unlikely ally in the form of altered robot Cleo (voice of Melanie Griffith) and comes to realise who the real enemy is... The film also stars Birgitte Hjort Sørensen, Robert Forster and Tim McInnerny.

Sci-fi DVD starring Antonio Banderas. Set in the future. You might like I Robot, The Machine, Humans, Chappie, Robotropolis. An interesting cast. Nice special effects.

The Anomaly Cert 15, Universal Pictures 2014. 5053083001414. This DVD is on sale myworld.eBay.co.UK/Solitarymaninblack soon. Sci-fi thriller starring Ian Somerhalder, Alexis Knapp, Noel Clarke, Luke Hemsworth, Brian Cox. There was me thinking Ian Somerhalder was the protagonist but it is Noel Clarke. The music is pretty good. A former soldier wakes up in a van. He is with a school boy. He has only 9 mins and 47 seconds of consciousness. You might like Open Grave, Edge Of Tomorrow, Surrogates, Quantum Leap, The One. The woman Dana is attractive. Nice body. Noel is in good shape. The fight scenes, choreographed and interesting cinematography. Good nudity in the brothel. Worth seeing the reviews. Ryan never knows where he is going to end up. Tackles the concept of mind control. Directed and produced by Noel Clarke.

You might like Chatroom, V/H/S, Cyberbully which starred Maisie Williams. I was hoping to see more of the girl's boobs. Skype/webcam chat. Looking at a computer screen. Some stuff typed which I cannot see. It's the private messaging part. I can't zoom on it so have to get up and get closer to the screen. The protagonist or who the audience is following. There is lots of clicking. I can't make head nor tail of what this person is typing or searching for. Seems a load of nothing. The trailer looked good. Jess is hot. It does begin to pick up. Great acting from the cast. Features swearing, violence and some sexual content. I will be looking at forum discussions. See the Amazon customer reviews.
