An awesome movie with amazing pre-Nintendo computer graphics and a sweet story.
I watched this movie before, but only in a german dubbed version, but the original version is much better.
A young Ethan Embry ( here Ethan Randall ) was great as a geeky computer wiz kid with an amazing ability in video gaming.
Although not one of his best works, its definitely worth watching. And not just for the NOW ancient CGI.

One of the best worst movies ever made
27 July 2007
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have to say that the action in this film was creative and exiting. Sadly, the acting and dialogue was horrid. The plot was predictable. All of the actors other than Ethan Embry were just plain bad at acting. If there was halfway decent acting and dialogue in "Evolver", the film would have been a spectacurlar success. For that reason, I have to say that "Evolver" is one of the most well made 'bad' movies that I have ever seen.
ROBOTIC NONSENSE
28 April 2005
Format:DVD
...but can be fun if you view it with no expectations. This 1995 sci-fi flick stars Ethan Randall (who is now Ethan Embry) as a whiz-kid teenager who wins a video game robot (Evolver) in a contest he rigs. The Evolver was created by a scientist played by John DeLancie, who at one time was working on a similar robot for the Department of Defense. Of course, this experiment went wrong and Evolver ended up shelved because it killed some soldiers in a test run. Anyway, you know what to expect. Evolver evolves into a killing machine who picks up suggestions for murder from watching tv programs, and soon Evolver is running rampant out to kill his "enemies." Voiced by the marvelous William H. Macy, Evolver is reminiscent of the robot on tv's LOST IN SPACE in that he also develops his own sick sense of humor. Director Mark Rosman keeps the pace interesting, and if everything has been done better since, EVOLVER is a moderately entertaining movie, a little too violent for small children, however.
Better than I thought it would be
7 July 1999
This film follows in the tradition of the Child's Play and Puppet master films. It is a pretty entertaining low budget sci fi effort and is very funny at times without taking itself too seriously.
