Viewing Notes
There are some neat things about this but all wonky science on display makes it a tough one to take seriously. Had Craven paid a little more attention to the details this could’ve been a lot better. Entertaining for sure esp Kristy Swanson. Just wish it was as smart as its premise. Dropping a chip into someone’s head and pushing a button on a remote control is damn stupid to see.
