Rating: 3/10 (14 February 2003)

too many images of people stabbing things with scissors. And how can you make a movie with this theme and omit political subtext?

The inspiration here is phony. They wave their arms around while watching special TVs, that about says it all. The sophistication into human nature is phony, too. It's like a bad sci-fi short story written by a college dweeb in his sophomore year.
I hate to dis a great director, but I am not interested in anyone's retro-adolescence, not matter how cleverly packaged
