With his teenage daughter Margot (Michelle La) gone missing-and the efforts of local authorities earnest but ineffective-widower David Kim (John Cho) opened the laptop that she never went anywhere without. As he canvases her browsing history and social media footprint in the hopes of uncovering leads, he comes to the devastating understanding that he didn't know his little girl as well as he thought. Inventive digital-age thriller co-stars Debra Messing, Sara Sohn, Joseph Lee. 102 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Narrative told through social media

The story here is pretty straight forward- father desperately searches for his missing daughter by retracing her steps via social media. What sets this film apart from most films is that the story unfolds via social media apps like Facebook and Instagram and video streaming services like Youtube. Our world now exists through the prism of these various apps and this film taps into that. Which makes it both intriguing and a bit sad. It feels like Black Mirror lite in a sense. Social media captures our best moments and also our worst ones. John Cho plays the lead, in the same year as Crazy Rich Asians blazed a path through the box office. However, this film is less decadent and more Indie. I wish it did better in the box office, it deserved it.

Now working as a Lyft driver, former government agent Robert McCall (Denzel Washington) still finds time to put his expertise to use helping those who can't always help themselves. But he's about to embark on his most personal mission yet after an old friend and colleague is brutally murdered and McCall must not only track down the killer, but do it before he becomes the next target on the hit list. Pedro Pascal, Bill Pullman, and Melissa Leo also star in director Antoine Fuqua's thrill-a-minute sequel. 121 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Not as good as the first one...

It's an entertaining sequel and holds the distinction of being Denzel's first sequel of his career. However, the charm of the first film has worn out. Denzel makes the film watchable and he has some great moments (ie his conversation with Miles in the project hallway).

What Venom could have been
on January 2, 2019
Posted by: KennedyFriedPatron

Verified Purchase:Yes
This film plays out like a better version of Venom. Instead of a symbiote, it's a nanotech robot. The movie rating matches the violence in this film. Venom is a film that should have been rated R but was too concerned with keeping up with big brother MCU.

Could have been better
on January 2, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
For a movie about puppets from a popular children's cartoon, we barely got any info or backstory about those characters. As a result, why should anyone care about some random puppets getting killed? The movie was very predictable and a lot of the jokes fall flat. This is strictly a guilty pleasure viewing.

On a superficial level, it's a cute rom-com. But for a film that was marketed as being so progressive and a Hollywood game changer, where were the Asian people of color? It seems that the lightest Asians were in the spotlight while the darker Asians were relegated to being servants and security guards. I get it, it's a modern day fairy tale, blah blah. But for a movie that marketed itself as a progressive moment in cinema history, that was a bit disappointing.
