Advantageous (7.2/10)

This 2015 sci-fi/drama has a really awesome concept, but I can’t help feeling like it would’ve been done much better if it were made today. The technology aspect felt a little limited, and I wish the plot had been more intense instead of focusing so heavily on the mother/daughter dynamic. It kind of reminded me of The Substance, just not nearly as bold or daring. This was also featured on the top NYTimes top movies of the century. "In a future where opulence overshadows economic hardship, Gwen and her daughter Jules try to hold on to their joy."
