Brilliant
31 May 2008
So glad that Steven Seagal got his career sorted out. He looks like a clown in his serious movies. And now that he can be a clown as Cock Puncher he is absolutely respectable. It's the best movie he played in until now.

Really smart in the movie how the short stories introduce characters, like the Kostman's Penis People company who rescue guys who get stuck with their instrument in all kind of holes. And then bring all these characters together in the end of the movie for the grand finale.

One warning though for computer literates among us: the computer Bates 4000 specifications are totally made up: there is no such thing as a 16000 CTC Combo Drive among other things.

Very entertaining
2 March 2008
I really appreciated this post modern SciFi saga. There are some scenes and themes that reminded me of Star Trek Borgs assimilation, The Matrix Sentinels attacks, Blade Runner city atmosphere and commercials, Star Wars space vehicles landings and political environment, Transformers battle of machines and not to forget the zombies from Resident Evil. The graphics are really stunning. The way the city landscape has been designed is phenomenal. The motion capture is seamless. The camera movement is very realistic. The love story in the movie was touching in the way it depicts how love is unconditional. The scene where Deunan is stumbling, and then you see that she took of her high heel shoes to feel comfortable is so hilarious, knowing what a tough cookie she is. What was missing in the story was to understanding better why and when Briareos became extensively replaced through cyborg equipment. I was lucky enough to see the English dubbed version.
