This movie is also called Military State; and is streamed on Tubi. It is very similar to The Humanity Bureau; and some parts of A Handmaid's Tale. The Eraser Team is a little embarrassing; in their off-the-shelf masks, and goofy armored suits. It was a little disturbing to meet the rebel team, only to see them all get butchered in the next few scenes. But truth, justice and the America Way won out over evil oppressiveness and stuff. Gets five stars.
Plot summary
In the midst of a terrorist-induced crisis the United States has declared martial law. Privatized defense forces and a state-of-the-art drone patrol system now monitor citizens and locate any new terrorist activities. Patterson Endcott, a computer scientist and drone pilot, is put on a hit list due to his religious beliefs and increasing doubt in the morality of his job. He and his sister, Samantha Endcott, are forced to find a place of safety beyond the watchful eyes of the surveillance drones. Considered a top level security threat by the government, the two are pursued by super soldiers, called Erasers, to capture them dead or alive.

Lots of fighting
"Rz-9" tells the story of a dark future where the government has put the public under mass surveillance. When one government agent finds himself on the edge of being investigated because of his religious believes, he joins the rebel forces with his sister and they try to escape to Canada.
The movie is not really a thrill to watch. It can't really decide between dystopia, action film and religious elements. None of those elements are presented badly, even though especially the more personal and emotional scenes didn't really convince me. The rest is pretty much lots of chasing and gunfights, nothing I can get too excited about but still told with enough story around to provide an acceptable plot.
All in all this is something you can definetly miss out on without a bad conscience but still the ratings here seem a bit harsh to me. If you like fights and action, you might actually enjoy this film.

Needs better casting, original sound track bigger budget. Worth watching? Yes.
Drops the ball in several areas. The first was the obviously "canned music". Some of the cast came off no better than that of a high school play. Well choreographed and cinematography, it moved along nicely in spite of what must have been a small budget. That, I believe was the downfall. I'll take a science fiction "B" movie over a romantic comedy any day.The best I can say is that in spite of shortcomings, I watched it to the end. Given more time, better casting, and an original sound track and it would have had my vote of 8.5 rather than 6. This movie had to have been well written as a short novel. As a film, it's subject the those shortcomings mentioned. Worth watching? Yes, in a pinch.
