a clever mix of sci-fi, action and philosophy

Rating: 10/10 (25 September 2000)

This one's one of my all time favorites. The story is both clever and sophisticated, and makes you wonder about the advantages and disadvantages of technological development. As for the movie itself, it's absolutely terrific. A perfect showcase for Arnie, with special f/x to knock your socks off. True, it's excessively violent, in the familiar Verhoeven tradition, with body count ranging in the zillions and some freaky make up f/x, but it all adds to the fun. So unless your squeamish, I recommend this one with all my heart
