Simply Perfect

Pretty Good

best movie i've ever seen.

A Masterpiece!

Olivier Gruner stars as Alex, a cop in the year 2027 who has had many body parts replaced with robotics after assorted scrapes. After retiring from the force, he's assigned by his old boss, Farnsworth (Tim Thomerson) to apprehend a former partner, Jared (Marjorie Monaghan) who's smuggling data to a terrorist group. However, he will learn that things aren't as they seem; he'll come to not only question his identity but wonder where his loyalties lie. Compared to the other B movies of director Albert Pyun, this does deliver the goods when it comes to the action aspect. It gets down to business in record time, and soon enough there's plenty of gunfire and plenty of explosions. The special effects are for the most part pretty good. Only towards the end do they get rather laughable. Both the production design and the location shooting are excellent. Pyun and company really do create the sense of a world that's gone to hell. There's a strong accent on sex appeal, with many hot women in the cast (Deborah Shelton is particularly ravishing as Julian) and female *and* male nudity. This has also got one hell of a fun B movie cast, with a couple of familiar faces, some of them Pyun regulars. Some of the acting (and dialogue) are highly stylized, so enjoyment of both is likely to be a matter of taste. Gruner is likable in the lead, and contributing a standout performance is Merle Kennedy as guide Max Impact. Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa plays "terrorist" leader Angie- Liv, Yuji Okumoto is a hotel proprietor, Nicholas Guest and a hilariously accented Brion James are Thomersons' colleagues, and Vincent Klyn and Thom Mathews play other baddies. Look for a young Thomas Jane (he's the provider of the male nudity) in a small part and Jackie Earle Haley in a cameo near the end as a technician. The main problem is the screenplay, by Rebecca Charles, which is rather muddled and Pyun has to work overtime to keep the audience interested in the characters and scenario. Thankfully, the movie does get better as it goes along and it culminates in one hell of a very funny and lively finish. The undemanding fan of low budget genre efforts such as this should find "Nemesis" agreeable if not remarkable or memorable. Six out of 10.

I found some originality in this film. OK there is a lot of movies similar to this. This movie is about cyborgs who wants to take over the world and there is a cop who wants to stop them. Actually the story is a little complicated, because there is a lot of different characters with a different interests and all of them are cyborgs, one of them want to destroy humanity, the others want to stop them and that's what makes the story so complicated. The other thing that I found being original was that cyborgs didn't wanted to kill the people, but they wanted to make a cyborgs out of them. The action sequences were all great, especially the shoot-out scenes. There was a lot of energy in this film, the characters were fighting, jumping from the different heights, there is a lot of great stunts and acrobatic tricks and it just doesn't stop, I can't find the right words to describe it, but it was great.

Action? there was precious little action in this piece of crap. Frankly the best damn action in the movie was granny pulling the hand gun out of her shopping bag and blowing away 2 or more of the 'droids'.It's yet another example of why governments should be careful about writing tax laws. Because it was done simply to make an investment in for tax purposes. It has no story You don't give a damn about the characters, It was created to lose money in a controlled fashion pure and simple. With this 'loss' to offset things on the investors income taxes it makes it possible for them to keep more money then if they never 'threw it away' in the first place.Sorry for the poorly writing comment but frankly don't waste your time on this at all.

This sexy, slick, sci-fi, shoot them-up, is a bit unpolished, but sure is fun to watch. Kick-boxer Olivier Gruner is so busy bucking them down he hardly has time to show some love round house kick style. The movie takes place in a post apocalyptic future wasteland, where having cybernetics implanted in you is as common as liposuction. O.G.plays an undercover L.A.P.D. cop who is sent to assassinate the leaderof a rebel group of Cyborgs, reported to want to control the remaininghumans. Once he shoots the leader the shooting doesn't stop and he's has a running gun battle with her fellow Cyborg rebels. He's mortally wounded and during recovery he has time to reflect on how much of him is human and how much of him is Cyborg. Being recruited by the rebels that say they're trying to save humans from rogue Cyborg officials. He's also asked to return to L.A.P.D. to fight the good fight against the rebels. Not knowing who's telling the truth he drops out. He goes mercenary and sells his skills on the black market to the highest bidder. This starts his downward spiral. The only way he can uncover which conspiracy is the truth, is to go back undercover for the L.A.P.D. Sexy: It starts off sexy with the opening scene being the hero and rebel leader amorously making out and disrobing each other, in a hotel hallway both planning on killing each other. Slick: Half this movie is Hooligans in 500 dollar Italian suits, loading and cocking tricked out machine guns. Shoot them up: Cyborg with belt fed 50 Caliber machine guns and mini-guns attached to their bodies that fire until lock back. This movie had more was made when Desert Eagles and H+K MP-5's were cheap. The scene in "Underworld" where Kate BECKINSDALE shoots through the floor to escape the Lykens was knocked off (sampled, stolen) from this movie. Unpolished: this movie was obviously written for a bigger budget. Pedestrian special effects don't do it justice. But this movie doesn't apologize for nothing. The movie poster says it all, he hero and a hot Cyborg chick holding tricked out MP-5's, enough said.
