Which part of the movie was that ??

Fun Fact: During the fight scenes, the camera often tracks Grey so that he remains in the middle of frame. According to director Leigh Whannell, this was achieved by hiding a phone somewhere on actor Logan Marshall-Green, which the cameras could then pair to and follow with as much accuracy as possible.

That is a great way to do tracking apparently. And a cheap one, at that.

For a movie with a $3 million budget, they made the best live action fight scenes I've ever seen, completely putting everything else to shame.

I cannot express how long I’ve waited for this sins video. This is one of my favorite underrated movies. A bit cliche and corny at times but really cool

Probably the best Venom movie we will ever have. And this movie had a small fraction of the budget of any superhero today.

I also want to note how well Grey’s actor moves. It’s subtle but it’s still all angular, instead of the fluid movement exhibited by regular people.

13:48 i know jeremy just glosses this scene over in this video, but I do wanna point out the kill scene for one of Fisk's companions. they only had 2 fake heads made for this film and the first one malfunctioned, but thankfully, their second fake head explosion wounded up going off without a hitch, and we got what is probably the most gory-ious (which is a word play of gory and glorious) kill in the film. and that alone deserves a sin off. hell, this kill was so bloody spectacular, it even gotten the golden chainsaw from dead meat james when he covered this film, which is gotta be a lustrious honor.

Also, this film was originally called _STEM_ , but there were concerns about it being a spoiler, so it got changed to _Upgrade_ .

I still see a good ending: the AI got what it wanted and he went in the matrix and proceeded to have a perfect happy life thinking he just had a nightmare...could have been a lot worse.....

Even if the protagonist was touching the guy being shocked, it would not mean he himself should be shocked: his back was against the wall and his feet were above the ground, while the other guy was connecting to ground. Assuming that the resistance of the wall was way more that the resistance of the pavement, it is actually reasonable that the protagonist wasn't cooked alive.

@@rumbazumba3189 I didn't see the film, so I don't know how Stem would work, you might be right. But consider that the human body is very much resistive and he isn't in contact with conductive surfaces, so the only "feasible" current he would be subjected to would be due to the nature of AC currents. This current would then be due to the capacitance of his body, but again, he is in midair so that not much current could flow and the path of least resistance is still the other guy. If Stem is designed right, it should be able to tolerate even milliamps of currents, which clearly weren't running in the protagonist's body, otherwise he would be bacon

Little fact The actress playing the protagonist’s wife was also a Power Ranger in the Mystic Force series

My uncle was a quadriplegic nearly all my life and I helped him with several things up until he passed away finally. It had to be a huge release for him to be free of that prison......anyway. He used a stamper with the ink built into it to stamp legal stuff that required his signature. He had to actually be holding the stamp even if I has roboting his arm and holding the back of his hand like a puppeteer? He had nurses for everything but he had me to hook up stereo systems and wire his room with cable TV , weigh out certain extracurricular substances for various friends and associates... hes been dead for a long time. Nearly 20 years i think?. I still miss him when I turn on the stereo...

The physicality of the main character and visuals of this movie are amazing! Deserves so much more recognition!

You can request the police report, but if it's in an ongoing investigation, they tend not to release it until the case is closed, depending on if there is suspicion of culprit. Coroners release full reports to next of kin/legal guardian when their examination is completed. I received my daughter's as soon as her autopsy was completed. The police report I wasn't allowed to have until they caught the pos that killed her, but in my case that only took a day. They wouldn't give me any information at all until they got a confession from her uncle first though. They didn't even tell me there was foul play when I was told she was missing(mother and I were split up and I lived 5 states away). I drove straight there under the assumption she had run away. I didn't find out what actually had happened until I got there, and I had to go to my local police station to verify I hadn't driven up there and taken her and brought her back to live with me before I could even leave town.

I'm glad we both agree that for what seemed like a low budget ish movie, the fight scenes were 10/10

Love the Venom/Tom Hardy Joke... I swear I caught two distinct Trailers for this Movie where I would have sworn it was a Venom trailer... one of them I missed the title drop and legit thought that it was...

Please do The Sandlot!

I’m so glad they compared this to Venom. I watched both movies for the first time back to back on accident. Took me a while but I realized how exactly the same they were half way through Upgrade.

Still one of the by cyberpunk movies of the last 15 years! The plot, the ending, the fight scenes.

This movie always came across to me as a precursor to the Ghost in the Shell universe and you gun rant reminded me of the assassin with the shotgun in her arm that she loaded with silver dollars I think. Her arm either worked off compressed air or spring tension so it was immune to metal detectors.

I don't see the connection to GITS. Gun arm and evil AI is far too common in sci fi to auto link it to GITS. I get that GITS is the go to for this kind of statement but there have been MANY sci fi stories both before and after GITS that have the same common attributes. It's a staple of the genre. GITS didn't create it but it's probably one of the most popular.

I know this might be a hard pitch, but I really think you guys would have some fun sinning the R.W.B.Y series, it’s made by RoosterTeeth and it’s a anime which is particularly why I think it’ll be a harder pitch since I know you guys don’t really do anime’s, but it’s in English and they are movies rather then tv shows, anyways loved this video regardless!❤ keep up the great stuff
