director: Andrew Niccol actor: Clive Owen / Amanda Seyfried
Set in a near-future world where there is no privacy, ignorance or anonymity, our private memories are recorded and crime almost ceases to exist. In trying to solve a series of unsolved murders, Sal Frieland stumbles onto a young woman who appears to have subverted the system and disappeared. She has no identity, no history and no record. Sal realizes it may not be the end of crime but the beginning. Known only as 'The Girl', Sal must find her before he becomes the next victim.
July 15, 2026 watched Niccol seems here more interested in building an stylized noir mystery than in exploring the social impact of this tech. But we're talking about tech that combines Meta glasses, Neuralink and Flock (to name a few), if they were made by competent people and worked like their respective techbro-dads dream they worked, so excuse me if I think that angle more interesting than trying to update old movies and make femmes fatales digital.

Not the kind of science fiction *I* wanted to see, so I give it an unfair and totally selfish 👎
