The Bozos

Rating: Null/10 (1 January 1999)

Before I begin, I would like to clear up something...I don't particularly think Bruce Willis is a Great Actor...he makes great, fun, and very entertaining films, but his acting has never been great (save "Pulp Fiction"), at least until now. James Cole (Willis) is from one of Terry Gilliam's horrifying future images, where the only remaining people on the planet live underground to avoid the plague that has wiped out most of the population. He is sent back in time to discover a cure for this virus, where he meets Dr. Kathryn Railly (Madeline Stowe), and Jeffrey Goines (Brad Pitt), and the race for the future has begun. With great acting from Pitt, Willis, and Stowe this story comes alive with terrifying realism, and frightening visions of the future of the human race....not to mention the finely developed romance between Railly, and Cole which is authenticly done, as opposed to a cheesy goo-goo film fling. Gilliam's eye for detail, and his vision of futuristic horrors is crystal clear, as always, and takes the viewer into a realm of planetary biological terrorism that stares down at us like a Queen Alien in her hive.
