only special effects? no, thanks...

Rating: 3/10 (5 March 2005)

this movie is based only on the special effects (very well done) and the image of Keanu Reeves, who surely is a good actor, and surely attracts fans (expecially women, as shown on the rating breakdown). There is nothing more in this movie. The contents have been told millions of times, it is terribly annoying, i risked to sleep many times during the movie. I know that there are people who appreciates the movies because of those fantastic special effects and beautiful actors, and because of this trend, many stories are made in function of the special effects and actors that the director wants to show. Very sad. Personally, i think that special effects and good actors can be appreciated only if they support the story, and not the opposite.
