My brief review of the film

Rating: Null/10 (17 March 2005)

A dark and pessimistic view of the future, the film has some excellent lighting, good special effects and a brilliant production design, as well as some things to say in terms of artificial intelligence. However, the film is overall rather a routine sci-fi action thriller under the visual marvels. The story is quite simplistic, with typical romance and the idea of getting rid of the baddies, and neither the characters nor the acting is too stunning. The music feels a tad inappropriate too, but generally it is a rather well made film. It has thrills, style and some intriguing questions - and such is enough to keep one watching, no matter what problems one may have with it.
