Special effects for the sake of special effects in a story with no ending

Rating: 3/10 (12 September 2000)

Well, this is the lowest rating I've ever given a film (3). Boring beyond belief. It's not like the idea is new; in fact, I would think the producer of this film would have to pay royalties to the guy who wrote "The Thirteenth Floor", I think it was, with Craig Bierko. That movie was entertaining and suspenseful. This is just the worst. You like science fiction? see "Last Night." You want another film about a manufactured universe? How about "The Truman Show?" This was a total waste of time, and I'm afraid its rating as #31 on the all-time honors list, at this writing, is just a testament to the fact that too few people my age can really use the internet. Keanau Reeves better stop doing this stuff, 'cause, like McCauley Culkin, he's gonna outgrow them.
