Mr Proyas is a robot director

Rating: Null/10 (21 September 2004)

Alex Proyas...with impressive hits such as the very first Crow movie and the superb Dark city ventures into sci-fi once more. But this movie is as artificial as the story and without any of elements that made the other two so impressive to me. The SFX is okay but a bit over whelming and it is only Will smith's brilliant acting and charisma that saved this movie from becoming a shaky battlefield earth type. It entertains however and is the kind of Blade runner Murder Mystery. It is even comparable to Minority report although it lacks the visual specs of that.
For me it was ID4&Bladerunner combined and on heavy steroids and without the aliens.
