Gaming🎮 Jennifer Lopez's new Netflix film almost looks like a Titanfall movie if you squint hard enough

It looks like Jennifer Lopez is continuing her streak of starring in very mediocre looking films with the upcoming Netflix movie Atlas.

Earlier today, Netflix released the first trailer for Atlas, which honestly didn't make it all that clear what it's actually about. But, I'd say if you squint enough, and tilt your head to just the right position, you could maybe pretend it's a Titanfall movie. If I'm perfectly honest, that's mostly because the film features mechs that really don't look that different from the first-person shooter series' Titans, but close enough, right? In any case, while the trailer doesn't tell you much, I can at the very least.

It's set in the future - obviously, there's mechs - at a time where AI-powered robots are being used to fight a war. What war? I don't know, one of 'em. It specifically follows Lopez as data analyst Atlas Shepherd (is it Mass Effect now?) who is forced to work with a renegade mech to save Earth. Of course, like most sci-fi movies that feature artificially intelligent robots, she doesn't trust them - a spanner is then thrown in the works when, while on a mission to take out a rogue mech, she ends up in a dangerous situation that forces her to rely on the aforementioned renegade robot.
