Honestly after watching the movie, there’s a few similarities to Strange Days (1995).
The lead is somebody who specializes in memory retrieval and has a tenuous relationship with the law, he’s got an old flame with a shady past, he has a black best friend/partner who’s in love with him, plus all the political corruption and social upheaval in the background.
