So tough, even Keanu couldn't kill it

Rating: Null/10 (1 April 1999)

I saw this movie on opening night, like a commonfolk non-college student, non-film critic. Anyway, lemme tell you that this movie is one action-packed piece of work. The visual effects and camara angles during the fight scenes leave you lying back in awe. Oh yeah, the plot (as if it needed a good one) was absolutely great. It kept you thinking about reality, and the world that surrounds you.
Yes, Keanu Reeves is in this movie. And yes, I did expect him to break the flow of the movie with a loud "Dude!!" (a la Bill and Ted). But, remember, Reeves didn't totally destroy "Devil's Advocate" either, so there is some degree of acting ability in that little head of his. Reeves had very limited dialouge, mostly restricted to "Huh?", "I don't understand" and "I don't believe it". Hmmm..that may have been a good thing.
If you don't see this movie for any other reason alone, go for the action sequences. The directors had Reeves unloading so much fire and fist-power, that one easily believes that he could kick Schwartzeneggar's tail. Anyway, this is a great movie, and I highly recommend it to anyone who needs a quick sci-fi fix before the madness of Lord Lucas and his "Star Wars merchandising machine" hit Earth.
