    I’ve said it before, and now that I’ve watched it, I’ll say it again: this is a future cult classic. I’d even go as far as putting it up there with 12 Monkeys.

    Similar to another commenter, I’m not usually a Patterson fan, but he nailed this role perfectly. Ruffalo too. His cringe factor was out of this world (pun intended).

      This was the first movie with Pattinson that I’ve seen. I recognized his face from one of those vampire drama/romance series, but I didn’t know what his name was. Turns out he was also in a Harry Potter movie (I’ve only seen the first two). I thought he did a good job.

      I’ve only seen Ruffalo in Shutter Island and maybe some other movie that I don’t remember. I thought Pattinson was better, but Ruffalo was good too.

      I could see Mickey 17 getting cult status.

      Many movies that are now considered legendary initially didn’t fare that well. Some examples include Blade Runner and Brazil (also a scifi, black comedy with some rather brutal themes).

      I will admit that some parts of the Mickey 17 were a bit disjointed.
