Phew, a summer film appealing to those with an IQ higher than 3!

Rating: 10/10 (24 July 2010)

This is not your typical summer film: it demands you pay careful attention to a fairly complex but quite intriguing plot. It has managed to steer clear of such banality as love interests that are grafted hamhandedly and gratuitously onto a plot.
This has all of the makings of a great science fiction classic. I am surprised it was made: Hollywood demands "dumb;" said demand has gone a long way toward turning off this film fan to the ever-burgeoning crop of new movies that bristle with banality. I am pleased and amazed to see a movie such as this appear in the filmic desert of high summer.
When you go to see this, pay close attention to get the full nuances of an intriguing story. Expect originality. Enjoy some fight and chase scenes that are adrenaline-filled and fun. This movie represents a fine effort in many ways. It will engage your intellect as well as your emotions.
