Question: the most interesting thing about virus is that the title of the film does not refer to the clunky robotic animals that try to kill our heroes .
alas , it refers to our heroes !
as it turns out , the alien race that sends a computer virus to earth ( via the mir space station ) thinks of the human race as a virus -- perhaps even a cancer -- that needs to be eradicated before it spreads any further .
after all , we have taken up this entire planet , and if they let us live for another billion years or so , we might advance beyond our solar system and into the next one .
but the human race does n't have much to worry about .
after all , there 's a woman named foster ( jamie lee curtis )
out there stopping the computer virus .
she 's the chief navigator on a sea vessel ; travelling with her is captain everton ( donald sutherland ) , steve baker ( william baldwin ) , woods ( marshall bell ) , squeaky ( julio oscar mechoso ) , and richie ( sherman augustus ) .
they 're all sailing in a typhoon one lovely evening when they stumble across an enormous , abandoned russian satellite ship in international waters .
lucky for us , we already saw that the computer virus has taken over the ship and eliminated everyone on board .
the evil captain everton thinks he 's going to take the ship in and get a reward ; he convinces his crew that there 's going to be big money , so they try to salvage the ship .
soon , however , when it 's apparent that no one is on board and that the ship has no power , they realize that something bad must have happened .
finally , they meet nadia ( joanna pacula ) who explains their situation : a computer virus has taken over the ship !
it 's creating bio - mechanical life - forms to eliminate the human race !
virus is a truly dumb action thriller , one of negligible intelligence and innovation .
when considering the entire film , you will realize that it lacks a single original scene .
it 's a direct rip - off of nearly every james cameron film ( aliens , the abyss , and the terminator films are the most plagiarized ) ; more importantly , it 's basically the same movie as last year 's deep rising .
i liked deep rising simply because it 's funny
-- it knows it 's silly and derivative .
virus takes itself seriously .
and , in the most serious manner possible ,
it steals from every good and bad film of the genre , showing you countless familiar scenes , and sporting a cookie - cutter plot that any film of the sci - fi / horror genre could fit with a little trimming .
but what is so amazing about virus is how poorly the whole thing has been thought out .
okay , let me get this straight --
the alien race ( which is never really explained ) is basically sentient electricity .
they need to make themselves physical , so they use a space station to get onto a ship ( which is surrounded by water , but who cares about that ) .
on the ship , they make a bunch of clunky , immobile robots that somehow kill three hundred people .
after that , they start using the dead people to create half - human , half - machine creatures that look like the terminator but are much worse at walking around .
the leader , of course , is a big creature .
every film like this has a big creature at the end , but the big creature in virus is so big that it has to tear down the walls to move around .
virus is indeed a cliched film , but the central flaw lies in the fact that the computer virus just is n't very threatening .
it 's established that they can simply turn off the power to stop it , but the virus has sealed the power room by the time our heroes get there .
on one level , virus is almost passable fun .
it 's really gory , and a few of the scenes have interesting camp appeal ( the director , john bruno , worked on a lot of cameron 's films ) .
there 's also a nice array of actors , even though none of them do any acting
( except for donald sutherland , who does a lot of very bad acting ) .
the bottom line , however , is this : virus is a bad movie .
it rips off a lot of good movies that are worth seeing .
in that order , i recommend that you rent any one of the alien films , simply to admire the qualities of a creature that actually threatens our heroes .

Answer: N


Question: well , i know that stallone is 50 years old now , but in daylight he does n't look it !
daylight is a great disaster movie . if you 've seen cliffhanger , you 'll know stallone 's character already .
a guy with a bad past , but is in the right place at the wrong time .
a tunnel connecting new york and new jersey has both sides collapses when a group of robbers collide with a truck carrying * very * flammable toxic waste .
a dozen or so people survive the collapses and the incinerating fireball ( and what a fire ball it was ! )
stallone , a former emergency medical service man , is chauffeuring a rich couple around , when they reach the outside of the tunnel , before the explosion .
then , 30 minutes into the movie , boom !
>
from here on , the plot takes a back seat , and we are treated to some of the best camera work and action staged .
most all the action is plausible and will hold you at the edge of your seat .
there are a few melodramatic parts here , but , they tend to work out well .
there is no general antagonist in this film , but the action and suspense makes you forget all about that .
daylight is a great film
, i saw a non - matinee showing of it , and i thought it was worth every penny .
the characterizations are mostly flat , one dimesional , but they have enough in them to get you to care for some of the characters .
rob cohen ( dragonheart )
does a great job with this film .

Question: synopsis : upper middle class , suburban family man lester ( kevin spacey ) realizes that he is just going through the motions : he is unable to feel passion ; he is soulless , cynical , and no longer able to feel the edge between success and failure .
everyone else around him has similar symptoms .
lester 's unassertive daughter jane ( thora birch ) is too lethargic to change her world , yet all too ready to whine and complain .
his wife carolyn ( annette bening ) is reduced to keeping up appearances and reciting commercialist slogans .
and these are people with a big house and a decent standard of living .
the only person who seems able to appreciate beauty and freedom and life is the person most deprived of it : a dope - dealing teen from across the street who is practically imprisoned by a domineering , bullying father .
when lester embarks on a mad scramble to feel the edge again , the fact that he has quit his job to feel what it 's like - - and his newfound interest in exercise to impress a teenage girl - - ruffle a lot of feathers in the family .
will lester regain his ability to appreciate life ?
opinion : people say it all the time : you never appreciate good health until it 's gone .
likewise , people raised in fabulously pampered prosperity can become unhappy and spiteful over the dumbest , most inconsequential problems , simply because they have no clue how good they have it .
sometimes it takes a near fall - - accidentally or through deliberate fasting - - to move out of apathy and reclaim your ability to challenge the world .
the deprivation / appreciation cycle is a major theme of american beauty .
american beauty is a non - formula , intelligent and articulate movie that offers fantastic performances by everyone in the cast , especially kevin spacey , who is simply gosh darn amazing
this movie .
the thing i like about american beauty is that there is no sentimental music , no hospital scene nor any overly dramatic hokum .
the movie entertains and offers brilliant performances just as is .
if you are in the mood for a thoughtful , non - formula flick , i highly recommend american beauty .
