5.0 out of 5 starsSTRANGE DAYS
By MADMAN TOP 500 REVIEWER on 17 Dec. 2014
Format: DVD
This is a very underrated film, for me this film is one of Ralph Fiennes finest, the story is about the illegal sales of "clips" they are digital recordings of real life ie sex, bank robbery, you can feel what it's like to be with a girl or a man depending on what takes your fancy, basically you can feel what they feel, but there is a dark side and that is the recording of deaths which are called "Blackjacks".

Ralph Fiennes plays Lenny a ex-cop who now deals in "clips" but spends most of his time trying to get back with his ex girlfriend Faith(Juliette Lewis) who is now with a record producer phillo gant(Michael wincott) and seeks to further her singing carer, but with the death of a prostitute a friend of Lenny and faith, and when Lenny gets evidence of how she was killed there is now a race to find the killer as he kills his victims by recording their last moments, and keeps sending the clips to Lenny.

But there is more to this prostitute death with the death of black singer, the main act of phillo gant who Lenny suspects as the killer and try's his best to warn faith. This is a brilliant film with a quality soundtrack and Juliette lewis has a great voice. This film deserves a uk Blu-ray release.

You can compare this film called "Brainstorm" a 1983 film with Christopher Walken, it has the original idea of the recording of human life.

5.0 out of 5 starsExtremely underrated and misunderstood
By DL07 on 16 Feb. 2006
Format: DVD
Strange Days is a film which has recieved a lot of pretty unfair criticism. One of the main complaints is that this is simply a standard underworld thriller given some futuristic SF gloss. In a way this is kind of true but classic Noirish storytelling is just one of several themes / ideas Bigelow and Cameron explore with this project. Strange Days is an overly ambitious film- but as overly ambitious films go it's probably one of the best there is. Religion, the turn of the millennium, virtual reality, prostitution, police corruption, racism- it's a lot for just over two hours but the fact that this film works is testament to it's makers' talents. Yes, Cameron's gone incredibly rubbish since with the absurd titanic (technically brilliant maybe but without doubt his worst film- including Piranha 2!). As to Bigelow- what problem do other reviewers have with her "Choice of material"? Near Dark, Blue Steel and Point Break are all excellent films (although I admit bad reviews put me off bothering with the Harrison Ford submarine one).
Strange Days also features standout performances from everyone in it. Fiennes is brilliant in one of his legendary transformational performances as the "likeable loser" Lenny (this was the first thing I ever saw him in and still have trouble accepting him for the posh Englishman he really is!) Juliette Lewis is great too- she sings for the first time here (actually two excellent P. J. Harvey covers) and her new band Juliette and the Licks are well worth checking out. Also having done the whole tormented loner/slightly crazy girlfriend thing in the past can tell you Lenny and Faith's story/relationship certainly is real, believable and really quite touching.
Michael Wincott is also very memorable as bad guy Gant.Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsExcellent 90s Sci Fi
By Alan North on 10 Feb. 2008
Format: DVD
The previous reviewer has picked the wrong film to berate with a 1/5 review from his wannabe-elitist perch. This film is based around a very neat premise of selling human memories as an alternative to traditional chemical based drugs. The human misery and exploitation endured by the proletariat to produce these memories for the consumption of the upper classes resonates even more today with the expanding wealth gap and expansion of reality television than it did around the film's theatrical release. Many memorable set pieces, particularly the POV recorded from memory action scenes and some and great characters make this a forgotten 90s classic than should be rediscovered by all. Enjoy, unless of course you have an agenda to hate.

4.0 out of 5 starsBack to the future
By Call me Al TOP 500 REVIEWER on 17 Aug. 2015
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
Ralph Fiennes gives an impressive performance as sleazy ex-cop Lenny Nero in Kathryn Bigelow's entertaining SF noir action thriller set in the near future. Nero is Raymond Chandler’s Philip Marlowe transposed to anarchic Los Angeles at the turn of the century, a flawed, fallen honourable man somehow living with his demons and surviving by trading in SQUIDs or ‘Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices’, which attach to the skull and transmit brain waves enabling the wearer to experience another person’s recorded reality. When Lenny acquires a recording of the gruesome death of his friend Iris he decides to investigate, but he is no all-action hero but an emotionally wounded wreck of a man, befriended and protected by Angela Bassett’s sleek tough limo driver and Tom Sizemore’s street-wise private detective (wearing an alarming Meat Loaf wig). The movie radiates a palpable destructive energy as Nero’s odyssey takes him though chaotic urban streets, scummy flea-bitten hotels and raucous grungy nightclubs. Despite being released in 1995 the movie touches on issues which are disturbingly contemporary, both societal and individual as our apparent search for virtual escape and voyeuristic porn leads to anomie and isolation. Probably the most unsettling part of the whole movie is when Fiennes and Sizemore experience Iris’s murder as perpetrator and victim, and it made me think of Michael Powell’s chilling 1960s film Peeping Tom. This is an exhilarating ride, told with an uncompromising conviction and audacious bravado and definitely deserves its place as a nearly-masterpiece of its genre. Highly recommended.
