very cool in some respects

Rating: 8/10 (10 April 2000)

this movie utilized some of the greatest special effects seen in any film in the last 10 years. there were some awe-inspiring sequences.

and for the most part i thought the characters and acting were very good - with one exception of course. keanu reeves is a bizarre phenomena. he is a terrible actor - at least at any character that requires any depth at all. he is fine in stuff like bill & ted or point break. i can't figure out what it is that makes him so popular with the public. i mean he is good looking but i can't believe it goes THAT far! if it does that is pathetic. what am i saying. of course it goes that far and of course it is pathetic.
the plot of this film was very interesting but it was executed in a way that was a little too comic book-ish for me. other than these two things i thought it was a greatly entertaining film which anyone who hasn't seen should check out.
