| I picked this up based on the reviews I read on Amazon and the low price. I was expecting a movie that rivals John Woo's Hard Boiled for non-stop action. Also a "Hollywood Style" flick that kept me riveted to the screen. I was sorely disappointed. I was stupefied by the first few minutes. Why were there jets flying around? It seems the jets were there just so they could put them on the DVD cover. Then a Singaporean general gave a boring speech about the "real war" on the internet. What on earth was he talking about? The rest of the film has a cliched plot about innocent guy whose brother creates a computer program that could crash the stock market. At two points the world stock market appears erased. The ending doesn't 'wrap it up'. I never found out if the Stock Market recovered. Does anyone know? Only saving grace for 2000 A.D. was a couple of good action sequences about 30-45 minutes in. They were surprisingly brutal. If I were ever to watch this film again I would definitely skip to these scenes. I recommend you get classic Hong Kong cinema such as "Hard Boiled" or "Naked Killer" instead. Actually "Gen-X Cops" or "Black Mask 2" look like more fun than this. I'll let you know. |
