"I can't believe I watched the whole thing! This is a HUGE load of pants! It's so bad it's on my top ten list of worst movies of all time.Joe Lara is a great actor but he was COMPLETELY wasted! Every other actor was just plain awful.They were reduced to such garbage.The script and storyline are seriously PADDED! And Joe looked like a major fag in that white leotard.I must admit that the FX were decent,but the film is sooooooooooo terrible. It's as boring as hell and is so heinous that it's laughable.The makers of this movie should go to a maximum security facility and a million dollar fine! The film is far too gory and the body count is WAY too high.What a pathetic waste! Rated R-contains gruesome,gory violence,strong profanity and a scene of strong sexuality."

"The Good Things:
-It was only five bucks!
-Special effects are a little antequated, but still passable.
-There's plenty of action throughout.
-The guns that shoot explosive rounds are cool!
-The bad guy was great.
-Some interesting ideas; LA in a biodome, a corporation running the city, prisoners stuck in holographic stasis...
The Bad Things:
-Some lines contradict the action. Some of it was downright cheesy.
-Characters are typical, almost like stock characters.
-There are a few boring bits.
It's a B-rated movie that's not as bad as it could have been. The characters and plot are a little bland, but it is pretty exciting and has some interesting ideas and scenes. It's not as great as "RoboCop" or the "Matrix," but would be a good compliment to something like "The Lawnmower Man" or "Virtuosity."
The disc is only in fullscreen and has no special features. The picture and sound quality is not bad, but not great either."
