Upgrade (2018)

In the near future, a man is crippled and a woman dies in what appears to be a mugging after a car accident. While recovering from his attempted suicide after becoming depressed, the man's offered the chance to try a new implant that can harness his brain's power to regain autonomy. Because he wants to find and take vengeance on those responsible for his wife's death, he goes for it.

And it is awesome. It's violent, for sure, but it's handled in such a way that it's more hilariously heightened than it is upsetting. We watch in awe at what this upgrade allows him to do as he is also in awe of what he's watching his own limbs accomplish. The physicality was incredible and just so fun.

And what a truly original yet satisfying ending, too.
