   After his wife is killed during a brutal mugging that also leaves him   
   paralyzed, Grey Trace is approached by a billionaire inventor with an   
   experimental cure that will "upgrade" his body. The cure--an Artificial   
   Intelligence implant called STEM--gives    
   Grey physical abilities beyond anything experienced, and the ability to   
   relentlessly claim vengeance against those who murdered his wife and left him   
   for dead.   
      
   Cast Logan Marshall-Green, Betty Gabriel, Harrison Gilbertson, Christopher   
   Kirby, Clayton Jacobson, Melanie Vallejo, Sachin Joab, Benedict Hardie,   
   Richard Cawthorne   
      
   Director Leigh Whannell   
      
      
   A movie that punches above its level.  The plot goes around in a bit of a   
   predictable circle with a nice kick at the end.  On the other hand it's just   
   another Hollywierd anti tech rant.  But the action is good as are some of the   
   tech.  Worth a view.   
      
   If they did a sequel I could see it going in an I Robot vein.
