You may or may not agree with everything in this movie, nonetheless, this is one of those films everyone must watch, if only to begin the conversation.

Detroit: Become Human
(2018 Video Game)
Mind-Blowing Experience
6 June 2018
Where do I start.... I'm still recovering from beating the game last night. An absolutely incredible experience that will last a life-time. Being a fan of David Cage's previous titles my expectation for this game was super high, and still it managed to blow it out of the water.
If you want an experience that falls somewhere between a video game and a film with incredibly deep themes and excellent acting, you have to pick this one up. This is not meant to be rushed through, sit back and enjoy the ride. I played this with my wife and we both had a blast going through it together, discussing our decisions, and the aftermath of those decisions.
Game of the year for me. (played both MH:W and GoW)

Not For Everyone...
21 February 2017
I hear and see a lot of mixed reviews on this movie so I thought I would put my two cents in.
Let's start off by saying this movie is not for everyone. There are two types of Sci-Fi movies, those that are more strait-forward and conventional (e.g., Star Wars) and those that are a bit more out of the box (e.g., Interstellar, Moon, Inception). Arrival is most definitely the latter. I went in with very little knowledge of the movie, which may have helped, but more importantly this is a movie you have to watch with an open mind. Things will not make sense until the end so it requires a bit of patience on the side of the viewer. That patience, however, is paid off well at the end with one of the most well- thought of and memorable endings I have witnessed. The viewer is required to pay attention to a lot of details and connect the dots, however if you enjoy movies that get the gears in your head going and enjoy a good mental puzzle, you will enjoy this movie. If you like to watch movies and "shut off your brain", you are probably better off sticking to movies like Star Wars.
It has been two days since I watched the movie and I am still reflecting on it and on my life as a result, Amazing!
