2023 movie #85. 1995. Set in Dec. 1999, with no mention of Y2K. Instead the big tech threat is a device that allows you to record your memories and share with others. Highly illegal. Mixed into the mix is an LA in what seems to be a permanent riot. Pretty decent movie.

2022 movie #185. 1990. A man (Silver) sees rookie cop (Curtis) shoot an armed burglar in a grocery store. He insinuates himself into her life while meanwhile he's killing people around town with the cop's name inscribed on the bullets. Creepy AF. Good psychological thriller.

An FBI agent goes undercover with bank-robbing surfers.

1/4 (Bad)

There are one or two good action scenes. The writing is horrible.

En julio de 1967, graves disturbios raciales sacudieron la ciudad de Detroit, en el estado de Michigan. Todo comenzó con una redada de la policía en un bar nocturno sin licencia, que acabó convirtiéndose en una de las revueltas civiles más violentas de los Estados Unidos. Los incidentes más graves ocurrieron en el motel Algiers, cuando miembros de la policía y la Guardia Nacional acudieron ante unos disparos de un arma de fogueo.

During the Iraq War, a Sergeant recently assigned to an army bomb squad is put at odds with his squad mates due to his maverick way of handling his work. (IMDb)

A bomb-diffusing team in Iraq.

Very intense; I was still a bit on edge for a good half hour after watching it. Easily the best serious war movie I've ever seen. Crazy well-made, and apolitical.½

Storyline

The story of USSR's first nuclear ballistic submarine, which suffered a malfunction in its nuclear reactor on its maiden voyage in the North Atlantic in 1961.

1958: The Soviets are building their first ballistic-missile-equipped nuclear submarine, and the craft seems cursed before it even touches the water.
A fire breaks out, killing two workers. Six women suffocate from fumes while applying insulation. An electrician is crushed to death by a missile-tube cover. An engineer falls between two compartments and dies.
