Elon Musk: "Humans must merge with machines or become irrelevant in AI age..." (Beware of Musk)Upgrade is a very well made Dystopian tale , warning of the existential threat posed by humans merging with AI technology - known as Transhumanism. Notwithstanding that the AI technology is intially intended to benefit mankind ....or is it its true intention ? (Enslavement/human extinctiin?) This seems to be the complex questions that are raised when delving into "upgrading" human beings.Once the AI chip is implanted into our protaganist it becomes clear that he has become the host of a self conscious AI that refuses to be subordinate to its host . All along it turns out that the AI was running everything: able to manipulate, and control all the humans through its ability to predict human behavior and reaction.At any rate although Act I was a bit unpolished and clunky , the rest of the film more than made up for it .The message of this film should not be taken lightly. Suprised it came out of US cinema.This is an Anti transhumanist message against merging AI into human bodies .STEM IS NOW IN CONTROL OF YOUR BODY - you've been forewarned !!I was surprised that an intelligent film came out of Hollywood compared to all the other mindless low IQ trash . Buy this film !

You know, as for a movie, it was a good one. Def one I never heard of and was a lot better than a lot of the movies I've watched that I have heard of. Later.

Great movie to watch with good ending.

This movie is Awesome, I have never seen anything quite like it,just watch it

One of the better movies, sci-fi or not, we've seen in a while. On the edge of being too violent, so be prepared for a few hardcore scenes...but well worth it.

better than most big budget star studded eye candy candy tgey pass as movies today... this one also has substance... and a wtf ending.

Love it

UPGRADE ist für mich DIE Überraschung des Filmjahres. Der Film bietet genug Action und Spannung um auch hierzulande eine Kinoauswertung zu erfahren. Das Filmende hätte ich so nicht vorhergesehen und trägt nur noch mehr dazu bei, dass UPGRADE im Gedächtnis bleibt.

Upgrade flew right under most people's radar on release which is a massive shame because it's pretty amazing! Especially when you know it was made in Australia with an entirely Australian crew! Up until, and pretty much after, the Matrix films Australia has not been known for it's film making ability. I grew up watching Neighbours and Home & Away right from their first episodes so I mean no offence, but man, their entertainment output sucks! I seriously don't see the appeal of Mad Max.This lovely new Limited Edition from Second Sight is pretty great. I'm sad to say mine arrived a bit dented which annoyed me but still, the case, disc, book and poster are undamaged. Please feel free to check out the link to my YouTube channel in my profile bio for a closer look at the outside of this box set.The set contains the film on Blu-ray with a really nice transfer. To me it looks the same as the U.S Blu-ray version which is no bad thing! The special features kill that version off with an audio commentary with director Leigh Whannell, an interview with Leigh Whannell, an interview with producer Kylie Du Fresne, an interview with cinematographer Stefan Duscio, an interview with editor Andy Canny and an interview with fight choreographer Chris Weir.The booklet is 36 pages long and the fold-out poster has the same art as the box cover.I hate spoiling films so I will just say that Upgrade is a very entertaining Sci-Fi/Action/Drama/Horror with a tragic edge! Nice twists along the way and once it gets started it really doesn't stop. Leigh Whannell is growing into a decent director with The Invisible Man coming up which looks pretty neat and Escape From New York after that. I hate remakes but maybe he can do something with it. We shall see..... He did create the Saw and Insidious franchises so he has some ability!

This film is by no means perfect but what a change to watch something that has had a bit of thought put into it. Its not just about the violence although this is graphically brilliant, there is actually a storyline and a nice little twist in the tale. Well worth watching.

All I can say is that this film is sick. It's got a really good unique story with a twist and even the action/fight scenes are done in a way I've not seen before. I can't really understand why this film isn't been talked about more and not a lot of people know about it? But 5stars from me. Im glad i got it on blu ray

Hi, this movie could be seen to be many person's guilty pleasure. A very well-conceived relatively low budget sci-fi thriller featuring Logan Marshall Green from Prometheus as a quadraplegic who gets a second chance at life when he is fitted with a micro-chip at the back of his head by a friend of his who runs a computer chips company. After he is fitted with this chip he goes on the rampage trying to find those whom are responsible for his condition and for the murder of his wife in similar conditions. The money has been spent in the right areas ensuring production design, acting, action and effects make it seem like a bigger budget film. An excellent result and one of the sleeper hits of 2018.
