We... Are Stenom... Based on the trailer alone, I was pretty sure Upgrade was gonna be a movie I enjoy. But after those last couple of minutes? Now? I'm pretty sure this is gonna be my favourite movie of the year. Final rating:★★★★ - Very strong appeal. A personal favourite.

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