About as deep as the Teletubbies

Rating: 3/10 (6 October 1999)

A terrible film. Completely unoriginal. And what's this fascination with just one special effect which isn't much more exciting than slow motion. I like action, and I like fancy effects, such movies don't require plot, dialogue, nor acting. Unfortunately lacks in every single area. Although I know that hype carries through lots of films, I can't believe the hype blinded so many people into regarding this film as anything but a cheap and nasty B-rated imitation of so many great, visually stimulating, and thought provoking films. As with previous comments, I recommend Dark City for the original movie plot. And just about any Bruce Lee film for the Kung Fu. In hindsight though, the popularity of this movie is making me think that the theme in the Matrix could indeed be the truth, except that in reality the "Matrix" is the Hollywood Movie Producers...
