illusion without reality

Rating: Null/10 (19 April 2003)

Lets get serious, the appeal of this movie is illusion, with no
semblence towards credible reality. It is a great boost for full length leather coats, pop out mobiles and dark glasses, oh yes and suburban "Oracles", whispering,.."he could be the one",...and when you compare to Star Wars, it tends to lag seriously behind that b rated movie.
Sure there are the thrills,..but the fundemental premise of machines using humans as batteries is flawed,...the nutrients fed the humans could much easier generate power more effectively without the humans.
And then there is that gratutitous kung fu, with all the freeze frames and slow motion,...all wonderful,..except don't you get a little bored,...leaving aside the non jaming weapons demolishing the foyer,...suspend all belief you who enter herein !
As to the best sci-fi movie,..Blade Runner tends to set the standard, and Matrix is not in the same league.
5 out of 10,..and most of the 5 is for the rabbit.
