Downstream (2010)
The music was good...
Pluses
Some of the songs were catchy and overall, the soundtrack matched the film's mood.
And the acting was okay, and the Big Chase/Fight sequence was workmanlike.
And the opening setup (while the credits were running) was good.
Minuses
The plot. The ending. The characters.
The Final Shift (2012)
A Science Fiction Thriller with a brain - spoiler alert
A movie about a pair of shape shifting assassin clones, this movie examines the debate between nature vs. nurture and the nature of identity (between chases, fights, killings and general mayhem of course). Not many big budget films tackle these themes with any degree of success but this one does - and it works.
It is a low budget movie and that shows. You might sometimes wish they'd looped the dialog more often or had even 1/10 the special effects budget of a 'Fast 'N Furious' series film but the acting is generally good and the ideas presented more than make up for any problems.
