I was surprised by how much I liked this. I went in with low expectations of just a dumb action movie, which it still kinda is, but it is also a decent sci-fi and the action is pretty great. The beginning is a little slow but once Grey gets Stem then it picks up. Logan Marshall-Green (or better known as the Tom Hardy look-alike, Tom Hardly) does a good job here. He moves like a robot pretty well. The action is great. There are plenty of action scenes and the short runtime makes it move fast. There are a few decent laughs too. The cinematography was very interesting too. The way the camera moves in certain action scenes are really cool, it makes a normal scene stick out as something special. One of the best things was the world it set up. Modifying humans with different upgrades is really cool. The whole gun in the arm is stupid but a crazy, cool stupid and I want to see more of that. I would like a sequel.

Like Deus Ex meets Crank, Upgrade is a stylish, gritty but somehow humorous thriller which is a blast from start to finish.

fun movie. the concept has been done before, to a point -- yet, the material felt fresh. I was a big fan of the camera movements when "activated"

just saw this movie and...what an unexpectated diamond that was?! the atmosphere of this movie somehow was similar to the blade runner! the plot, the acting, the fighting scenes geniously made! and the ending was unexpected and brilliant. one of the best movies i have watched for a really long time. and i have watched almost every single scifi movie that has been out there!

I finally got around to seeing ==Hush== the other day and said I found my new favorite **Blumhouse** movie. Now, in under a week, I have a new favorite **Blumhouse** movie.

Unlike other Blumhouse films, this is an action movie, but think more gory ==Robocop== and less Lethal Weapon. Logan Marshal More

Low budget, but well done sci-fi. It's not overly cerebral; there's a consistent amount of action throughout. Worth a watch.

_Upgrade_ is a visually appealing cyberpunk story with plenty of twists and turns. From the beginning, I was pretty hooked. The setup for this film is done so well, I was really into it. Visually, this movie is a treat. So many creative shots made the film feel fresh and fast paced. The combat is br More

**Overall : A fresh action standout with unique characters and excellent fight sequences. The Accountant's numbers just add up!**

The Accountant was an unexpected action thriller with unique character choices. Ben Affleck's Chris Wolff is a highly capable and efficient hitman with high functionin More
