Grey watches helplessly as Asha bleeds to death next to him. Grey returns home - a widowed quadriplegic, under the care of his mother. His wife's death and the inability of police to identify their attackers cause him to sink into a depression.
After a suicide attempt, he's offered to have high tech chip implanted - enabling him to walk. Though initially hesitant, he's persuaded to have the surgery. Not Man. Not Machine. Rated R for strong violence, grisly images, and language. Did you know Edit. Trivia 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.
Goofs Stem asks Grey to hold the drawn tattoo in front of his eyes in order to read it for him. However, Stem already has the picture since he has drawn it in his memory, so there was no logical reason to re-scan it again for the purpose of reading it. Crazy credits In lieu of text, the production companies and title are instead narrated by an artificial female voice, represented visually by sound waves.
User reviews 1. Top review. Venom, but Sci-Fi, Gorier, and Better. As stories go, Upgrade isn't anything particularly spectacular. There's some really good ideas of course, but the idea of cyborgs and AI taking over humanity are as old as technology itself.
It also surprisingly draws parallels to a superhero movie released in the same year; Venom, where a normal Tom Hardy-looking guy finds himself possessed by an entity that helps him get what he wants by controlling his body. Where Upgrade really shines is in its execution.
The build-up leading to multiple multi-layered twists upon each other lend the film an unpredictable narrative complexity, where multiple rewatches are guaranteed to illuminate more subtle complexities, callbacks, and foreshadowing. Something that really makes Upgrade stand out is Logan Marshall-Green, who offers a truly impressive physical performance that is both demanding and complicated to achieve.
The controlling of his body by an AI leads to some stylish fight choreography, and Marshall-Green doesn't stutter in adding robotic, calculated movements to those scenes, while simultaneously acting in juxtaposition with his head and facial expressions. He's confused and bewildered while he slices a guy up with a kitchen knife, he brags and gloats while his body effortlessly dispatches of goons, he pleads with bad guys not to continue fighting while his robotic-moving arms quickly and decisively disarm and dispatch of them.
He holds such an impressive disconnect between his head and his body that I couldn't even imagine how hard it must have been to develop such physical coordination while acting and making it look effortless at the same time. Marshall-Green has never particularly impressed me before, but he has now.
The '1 Item Added' message at the end of the submission process only refers to the items that have been queued for processing and sent to our editors; it doesn't mean that the item has been accepted for inclusion on the site.
All submissions still have to be screened and processed by our staff. Also, make sure that the data was actually sent: before you click on the "Submit these updates" button, all fields should have a green background. Any item with a yellow or red background indicates that our system found a problem with the data that needs to be acknowledged or corrected.
Any items that do not have a green background when you click on the "Submit these updates" button will be discarded and will not be sent to our editors for processing.
I sent the data more than two weeks ago and it has not shown up. Why did you reject it? There are many reasons why our editors may reject a submission. For example: You may have failed to provide enough information for us to verify whether the title or credit you supplied is eligible for inclusion in the database.
For cast or crew credits, we may have been unable to verify the presence of that person in the film. This typically happens when we receive credits for a film which is still in production, not yet released, or otherwise hard to obtain.
Whenever possible, please try to add as much information as possible about the credit, such as the name of the character portrayed by the actor, its billing order in the cast etc. A cast or crew credit on a TV series will be rejected unless you submit it as an addition to the specific episode or episodes in which that person worked.
You may have submitted new credits for a movie whose cast or crew are marked as complete. Please remember that we list credits as they appear on-screen. If the person did not receive a screen credit, we will not accept the submission. We make very few exceptions i. For more information please see our uncredited appearance guidelines. Your credit may have been submitted to the wrong filmography section. For example, we list only main film editors in the Editor credits section: other types of editing jobs such as sound editor or assistant editors need to be added under the proper data section like the Sound Department or Editorial Department.
We list only acting roles in the Cast section of a film, so other types of performances need to be added under the proper data section. For example: voiceovers, looping, adr work, stand-ins, photo doubles and puppeteers belong to the Additional Crew; stunt performers and stunt doubles belong to the Stunts section, etc.
The format of your entry may have been incorrect. Our system must be very picky about format of titles and years because we have over a million titles, many of them very similar, and over three million people. You need to be very precise when entering a new title or name, to avoid confusion with existing entries in the database.
The content or your submission may have been incorrect. Everyone makes mistakes and sometimes people think they've recognized a familiar actor in a film, or maybe have heard rumors about the casting of an upcoming film that later turn out to be false.
We are careful about the data that is posted on our site and tend to err on the side of caution.
