George B It's a great cyberpunk movie, the acting isn't always perfect, the editing isn't always great, but the actors within the movie, the world that it draws you into, the overall 'vibe' of the movie being dark, gritty, nocturnal, in a sense, is just great. Part of my personal view is based on the context of it being a movie of its time, the actors being who they are, and the fact that it used to show up late at night on TV, probably make me feel more favorable toward it, however.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/08/25 Full Review Jens B On paper, the story of "Johnny Mnemonic" sounds quite interesting, as it features many cyberpunk tropes. This isn't surprising, considering William Gibson himself wrote the screenplay. The film also introduces many interesting ideas – the interconnectedness of humanity, the omnipotence of corporations, humanity as a commodity, the compulsion to consume, etc. Unfortunately, none of these ideas are developed. Instead, we watch Keanu Reeves in his pathetic attempts at acting and are delighted by the visually interesting production design. The world is rotten and littered; the privatization of everything apparently hasn't helped. But at the very latest when Keanu uses the predecessor of the Vision Pro and engages in a hacking duel(?), Ice T shows up in a carnival costume, and Dolph Lundgren crucifies some people to the wall with the words 'It's Jesus time!', it becomes clear that an interesting idea has been implemented absolutely poorly. There's never any momentum in the 90 minutes, and what little action there is is staged in a laughable manner. It's a damn miracle that just a few years later, with the same lead actor and a very similar premise, the Wachowskis were able to deliver a much better film in every respect. I'd rather watch "The Matrix" for the tenth time than subject myself to this crap again. Oh, and there's a hacker dolphin. Just wanted to mention that.

Kinda like the Escape from New York , films. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/07/25 Full Review james r Ok so you've got Coyote Shivers, Henry Rollins, and Ice T. That's too many musicians trying to be actors. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Read all reviews
