Good cyber-punk flick 9 April 2010
Format:DVD
This movie doesn't receive the credit that it deserves, Bai Ling plays a fantastic role in the movie and is one of the most awesome female characters in a B movie action flick that I've ever seen. The whole futuristic, cyber-punk concept may have already been done and recycled from Blade Runner. But in general, a female character like Michelle really gives this concept a breath of fresh air. Perhaps this would have been more well received if it was a video game, but, it was still one of the best female led action films I have seen in a long time with a great industrial soundtrack.

remember we are not all into the same films and this will please many like me lots and lots but it will also not please many others lots and lots and i like many do know a very good well made film with a very good story like this one and it has everything that gives it that all in full top marks and for all those who cant follow or see and understand that what the whole film is about its there los. again this is a fab great classic and one not to miss even those who have not seen it and those who have and dont think much of it its still a great film when they look at and see and understand the film as all us who do without any distractions a fab film all round dont miss it and im glad i did not. for those who did not like it were they having a bad day or to many distractions.

OK, this film is far from perfect, but it is still a fun popcorn movie that all cyberpunk fans should see at least once. Bai Ling is hot as a futuristic assassin. The music is great and the FX are impressive considering the low budget.
