Richard Goldberg
Richard Goldberg’s name pops up everywhere on movie credits lately. If you’ve been binging any sci-fi or action flicks from 2020, chances are you’ve tripped over his work, whether you realized it or not. First off, there’s "Archive." It’s this moody, cerebral sci-fi where humans play Frankenstein with AI, mixing up what’s real and what’s not until your brain’s spinning. Goldberg’s stamp is all over the atmosphere—cold, sleek, but somehow still deeply human. The questions it asks? Not your run-of-the-mill robot flick stuff. We’re talking big, weird existential ones.
Then, you’ve got "Hard Kill." Totally different beast. Imagine a no-nonsense, guns-blazing action romp where the stakes are wild and the explosions never quite stop. It’s like Goldberg decided to let loose and just have a little fun with the genre. There’s tech, there’s danger, and—of course—there’s Bruce Willis doing his thing. The script doesn’t dance around, it just sprints through chaos, and honestly, that’s half the charm.
And "Inheritance"—oof, this one’s dark. Family secrets, moral gray zones, and a vibe that makes you want to check under your bed before you sleep. Goldberg leans into the tension, crafting a story where trust is a currency nobody seems to have. It’s twisty, uncomfortable, and keeps you guessing right up to the end.
So yeah, if you’re after movies that bounce from brainy sci-fi to hard-hitting action to twisty thrillers, Goldberg’s your guy. He doesn’t stick to one flavor, and you never quite know what he’ll throw at you next.
