Visual and Intellectual Splendor!

Rating: Null/10 (18 November 2001)

Finally, a Sci-Fi movie that out does the special effects with an intriguing plot. Even with Keanu's limited depth as an actor he pulls off this role nicely as a disenchanted hacker with two separate lives. The rest of the cast do a great job and and basically fill in all the gaps of the complex human spirit. Every character in this movie is well layered with a range of motivations, limitations, and talents. The plot develops very well with several twists and misdirections and while being fantastical it manages to stay very close to the believable. To me this movie would be equally appealing to the Sci-Fi fanatic and the steadfast realist. I hope everyone enjoys this movie as much as I did!
