Yesterday, I took a night off to deal with a miserable cold;
I felt the need to find something different tonight for my evening
entertainment. After some searching, I decided on the 2016 NETFLIX Original
ARQ.
Plot/ Trapped in a lab and stuck in a time loop, a
disoriented couple fends off masked raiders while harboring a new energy source
that could save humanity.
ARQ may sound like a clichéd Sci-Fi interpretation of a loop
film, but in many ways, it is much more than that. This is a solid, well
thought out, and intriguing Sci-Fi thriller that is definitely worth watching.
The acting is sound, the storyline has enough twists and turns to keep your
attention, the scene progressions are logical, and the overall atmosphere
offers some suspense. Yes, it may be a touch confusing to the passive viewer
and some of it may seem a bit off, but that does very little to bring this one
down. In the end, this may be one of the best time travel flicks to come out in
some time, and it is a movie that solidifies NETFLIX as a viable studio in the
Sci-Fi community. If you have not seen it, you should!
