I’ve been so busy lately that I haven’t been watching much TV or movies lately, and I definitely haven’t had time to prepare any videos. I don’t even really have time to post this, but here I go. In lieu of an actual review, I’m simply sharing the line-by-line notes I usually link to. These are the thoughts that pass through my mind as I’m watching a movie. They don’t always make sense, but are always entertaining. They shouldn’t have any spoilers either.
So here are my thoughts.
Excited to see the actress from the original “Girl with the Dragon tattoo” movie.
Dull intro credits.
Climate change, overpopulation, genetically modified crops, mutated babies.
Child Allocation Act.
Ah, Glen Close.
Love Willem Defoe. Great when he’s great. Awesomely bad when he’s bad.
Sunday- smart business look, seems sweet. It begins.
Nothing like ripping a child from a mother’s hand.
The doorman is on to them
Saturday looks like trouble.
Thursday goes first.
Nope, I was wrong. Thursday is the troublemaker, but sometimes that’s good.
What happens to one happens to them all… That’s sad.
Monday is the brave one.
Monday- the big day.
She’s short and he’s tall.
Monday is off the grid.
Friday is the smart one.
Tuesday- two outside at once.
Jerry is more than just a d*ck.
The flirtatious guard; a possible ally.
No need to kill the only other black person in the movie. Cliché. Bad writing.
These chicks are scrappy.
Wednesday- no need to pretend anymore.
Wednesday is cool, a little jumpy, but cool.
I really like Wednesday right now.
That was freak’n awesome!
She’d totally be dead or paralyzed.
There’s always a ghetto. Fight the power.
Thursday is not what she seems. I like her more now.
Dang.
The guard was seeing Monday?
I could do without this scene. It’s not vital to the story. Just fulfills some people’s need for nudity.
Thursday- three left; Monday is alive?
Yep, Monday.
Well, at least Saturday got in one good adventure.
Turns out, Friday was the sweet one.
He really cares about Monday.
Of course, the plan was a lie. At least it’s not soylent green.
Monday is not what she seems either.
Two of them in one big ballroom! 😀
That’s messed up.
Gonna check it out?

Interesting approach to a review. Thanks for the glimpse into your mind. Glad you liked the movie.
Yeah, I actually do this with all my reviews, but it’s usually just a file I attach to if anyone is interested. Being short on time, the list got prime posting this month. 😉
This is a great review because there’s so much white space around each point. I like white space because dense text gives me a headache! LOL
Glad you liked it. I was worried how people would respond. I always offer these as linked attachments but was short on time this month.
Lol, I loved the William Dafoe comment because it so true. I saw this on Netflix and was contemplating if I should add it to my list to watch at a later date but I was on the fence. Your review came in handy.
If you like a bit a sci-fi action, this movie is really good. Plus, there are some moral questions to consider.
