Good fun

Rating: Null/10 (3 July 2000)

I found this movie to be quite fun to watch, it's not just an action bonanza. Throughout the movie you are trying to figure why is everything happening? I won't say too much on the plot, it's one of those which cause endless arguements with your friends.
The director loves to deal with an unusual future, this one is certainly that. The film looks a little cheap, the production looks a little dated. I thought some of the imaginery looked amazing, good use of colours throughout the picture. I was disappointed that the picture was not shot in panavision scope, this film would've been better in that format.
Arnie is Arnie, his acting is pretty good, he's always great to watch and he seemed to be having a great time. Sharon Stone is fine, nothing great. The villains are played very well.
The screenplay needed some fixing, the finale is disappointing.
The score by Jerry Goldsmith is fantastic, one of the best action scores of the 90s.
Overall, a good fun film but the screenplay required a little more thought, especially the finale.
