Really good crime drama. Mendelsohn is, as always, a menace.

A fascinating part of Internet history. As someone who's a huge Firefox fan, it's amazing to see how it all started - and how quickly the story of Netscape ended.

What makes this so compelling is its time-frame. Released very shortly after the events unfolded, even the narration is still blithely ignorant of the things to come. Google and Amazon still in their infancy, Facebook or Twitter not even a blip in anyone's imagination, the landscape of Silicon Valley still appeared very differently and all that lay ahead was the promise of more opportunity.

Not sure why I keep watching these films. One tends to blur into another and the plot is either convoluted or razor thin (or both).

I did like the goats, though.

It's not the most original approach to the theme (we've seen similar offerings in the past few years with "Midsommar", "It follows" or even "The Babadook"), but it shows up with some respectable jump-scares and that children's party scene was among the most uncomfortable things I've seen in a long while.

Hardly comparable to "Troll Hunter", but it's a nice addition to the "scientist tries to convince the military to not indiscriminately shoot up everything in sight"-genre.
