Much too average
by PJR (Minneapolis, Minnesota United States)
It just did not hang together, as is true of so many films.
On the positive side, the photography was sort of artsy, like of the people in bathing suits in the sauna. But most of the film was so poor that it made the artsy flourishes seem pretentious. Too much gratuitous violence and blood. Also on the positive side it was fun to watch an overweight aging Kilmer play an intelligent schizophrenic who was overdue on his meds. I think he overplayed it, but they have to do that in Hollywood films for the mass audience, and looked at that way his acting was fun.
Not one to rave about!

The 2nd Val Kilmer Movie I Ever Saw
by Daniel A. Foster (Falmouth, MA, USA)
Val Kilmer (BATMAN FOREVER), Armand Assante (THE ODYSSEY) and Eric Roberts (THE DARK KNIGHT) star in this bizarre thriller about a deranged scientist who wants to prove a point. I first saw Val Kilmer in the 3rd Batman film; BATMAN FOREVER co starring Tommy Lee Jones (THE CLIENT) and Jim Carrey (ACE VENTURA: PET DETECTIVE). This movie is alright but not as good as BATMAN FOREVER or TOMBSTONE (from what I've heard). The transitions are kind of weird because in the scene with Dr. Jimmy Pettis in the Police car, he is in the back seat but the transition also makes him look like he's in the passenger seat as well. I would have to give this movie a 4.9 out of 5 star rating because it is too weird and has a poor plot.

C'mon ...its not THAT bad
by Anthony Vera
This movie doesnt hit on all levels but c'mon Ive seen worse. Val Kilmer delivers the goods. So does Eric Roberts. The plot was better than most "direct to dvd" plots. Hey, I finished the movie...the story held my interest. Ok, its not TOP SECRET, WILLOW, TOP GUN or REAL GENIUS. The 80's are over. Val is just getting started.
I smell a comeback.

I just kept thinking, 'It's going to get better!'
by C. Mischler (Minneapolis, MN)
I was wrong. It never got better. Why Val Kilmer and Eric Roberts would sign on to do this movie is completely beyond me. Actually, why a studio would spend the time trying to make something that looks like a feature film out of that script is beyond me. Seriously one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I should have looked for reviews before I pulled it off the shelf at Blockbuster.
