Audience Member This film is at least based on the premise that it will largely resemble some kind of a LARP. So it successfully pre-empts one of the major hurdles of poorly executed B-grade films, but also takes the entire hurdle course like a track star. Teenage bonus for the rosy-nippled nudity in the first scene. And the second. And the third. It's not all Skinemax, though: they take a break from sexuality until the repeated attempted and implied rape of the female supporting actress from about the time she's introduced an hour in. The real showcase of this film is the stage production quality. Quality period sets and costumes, a wide variety of effects, stage and technical props, stunt and fight choreography abound. There's also great camerawork and framing, image quality and use of lighting. It's a fairly cerebral story about a history scholar who works as a lackey medical examiner slash guard in a virtual prison overseeing the detention and execution of comatose criminals jacked-in from slabs in a basement. The detention involves medically tending to the naked, intubed bodies of the prisoners while the execution involves the prisoners being hunted in virtual gunfight scenarios from various time periods: this is the colonial/vietnam/WWI/roaring 20's/old west/WWII/futuristic hacker movie you've been waiting for. The main character's humanity is pitted against a strange plot brewing in the belly of the prison beast headed by Crowley, who is played by the actor who played "Jake Fratelli" (The Goonies). There are some big surprises such as aerial photography and stunts, pyrotechnics, a few laughs and a MIDI score that's fairly rousing for being so cheap (the digitally sampled "instruments" clip at the end of one scene). You can find this gem in the Wal-Mart bargain bin under the collection "Road Fury: 5 Movies". Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member The premise seems like it would be interesting, but it's handled so poorly. The movie bounces around virtual locations, while trying to start some sort of drama in these video games. Many scenes wind up being hilarious in a bad way. Davi's role is nothing memorable.
