      Audience Member Fine French Sci-Fi That Might Well Be A Not Too Distant Eventuality. The Chance To Manipulate, Erase, Even Refine Our Memories With Technology Would Be Quite A Prize Machine..Many Would Be Willing To Kill For Such A Thing, I'm Sure. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member completely loved it! the way it was filmed was interesting, with changing live pictures of the objects, giving the right mood for the scene. places of Paris which brought through a nice memory path. amazing! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member good sci-fi thriller Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member "Chrysalis" is beautifully filmed but tries a bit too hard to be clever and unpredictable. "Minority Report" meets "Lethal Weapon". Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member A Paris cop encounters a series of victims with the same strange markings around their eyes and tracks his suspect to a hi-tec trauma hospital. Chrysalis features a premise built around memory manipulation, very much in the same vein as Total Recall and has the same blend of washed out cinematography and near future technology as Minority Report. Throw in some bone crunching fist fights and a couple of shoot outs and you have a French tech noir executed with some visual panache but little in the way of original ideas. What there is of it is efficiently done but the plot is a little too flimsy and the twist in the tale glaringly obvious, making the conclusion fail to live up to the promise of its early scenes. It's certainly not a bad film by any means, but the extremely similar Minority Report is so much better. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Bleak sci-fi drama in the same vein as La Derniere Combat. Impressive martial arts scenes depicting wing chun techniques.
