Entertaining, interesting and nicely shot.

Rating: 7/10 (25 June 2009)

I know, I know.. it rips stuff from every major sci-fi sub-genre i can think of... but hey, if only all the sci-fi we get to see was this good! Proyas proves (again) to be a very capable director, Nic Cage is OK (but not as good as we all know he can be if he wants to), rest of the cast is more then adequate. I liked the story, good mix of weirdness and believability, some plot inconsistencies here and there, some development missing on some issues but mostly OK and also not "stupid". It does not require the usual "suspension of disbelief" that most sci-fi movies seem to need today. FX are on par with bigger budgeted movies and sound was really good. In the end all i can say is i had a good 2 hours of fun watching an entertaining movie, ...isn't that what these movies are made for? A solid 7+ is my vote.
