Looks like pretty sweet demo-reel material.

This looks pretty damn awful.

CGI looks like some SyFy level dreck.

So... what Netflix CGI usually looks like?

This movie vaguely poses some interesting questions about the role of AI and general advanced technology in warfare. However, it doesn't really do much with them and it doesn't received the support of compelling characters to bring life to its admittedly unoriginal story.

So in effect, the movie ends up being a mix of the same sorts of elements and generic style we've seen before. And it does all this without much character or energy, just following our characters from location to location to advance the plot.

At the end of the day, it ends up being bland rather than "bad", but sometimes bad movies are more fun or memorable.....

5/10

Very generic and predictable. Some interesting morality ideas, but it's not enough.

2/5

The definition of a "Netflix Movie", i.e. a competent genre exercise, with decent production values and flashes of excitement, but as flavorless as a big bowl of non-fat ice milk.
