Viewing Notes
via Netflix
While this may have gotten some mixed reviews, I have to say as a sci-fi fan I loved it. It takes a lot of ideas from Asimov and Dick and puts a neat little spin on it that would make this film feel as at home with the good 80s cyberpunk as it does now. Fantastic practical effects that make the robots seem almost haunting along with complimentary cg makes the world they live in feel completely realistic and the actors performances were great. The only issue comes towards the end with a bit of genre cliche sneaking in to what could have been a great ending.
