    Some good (and gross!) gags about Jack Quaid's character not being able to feel pain after a necessary beginning that establishes how lonely and debilitating his condition is. It drags a bit at the end but it's a fun time and I like Jack Quaid a lot.

    It's just as bad as people are hyping. Perhaps worse.

    The acting is atrocious across the board. Yes, even Adam Scott. The worst performance is by the guy who plays the villain, who gives perhaps the worst superhero villain performance of all time. The most hilarious part is that seemingly all of his dialogue is ADR'd. It's really distracting.

    Pretty fun and creepy enough. Didn't care about the AI stuff. Could have done without the long montage that explains everything in the beginning, which should just have been a few clips of the show without narration. The rest of the movie is a tape of the "episode" with B-roll footage, which is a fun conceit but the B-roll footage feels like some obvious cheating. Good performances by David Dastmalchian, Ingrid Torelli, and Ian Bliss.
