I thought this was a pretty amazing science fiction movie which tackled some pretty deep themes intelligently and was always interesting to look at. Its cool to watch this film and think how far film making technology has moved on since Blade Runner 20 years ago. My only gripe...as a low budget film maker on limited funds...modern Hollywood movies (due to the heap of money that is thrown at them and CGI) have no rough edges. Everything can be enhanced and made. Am I alone in thinking this takes something away from the art of movie making? Not unlike the process of airbrushing reality that is in some ways examined in the movie.
One last thought. In terms of the conceptual ball park this film was in, it reminded me a little of Cronenberg's Videodrome...which was not a commercial success. The difference.....about 100 million dollars in the budget
