The plot is unoriginal, but that means precisely squat.

Rating: 10/10 (8 May 1999)

I heard of this movie months before it came out, and thought it would be another Sci-Fi flop. I was wrong. This movie just plain rocks.
1) Character development is limited to the main character, but I can certainly live with that.
2) Special FX are top of the line.
3) Story may be unorigianl, but it is a classic plot that is told better here than ever before.
4) Cinematography is perfect. 'Nuff said.
5) It's just cool!
While it's not very origianl, it is done with a twist (a big one to be honest) and I think it is possibly one of the best sci-fi films of all time.
