Movie for Gibson Fans

Ok first off, its not a great movie, the acting is pretty awful. But I give a huge amount of credit for the people behind Cyber Wars taking on the rare challenge of recreating a William Gibson post modern cyberpunk genre film. Its rare that we see these ideas put on display and although this movie is very low budget, what they do with the budget is very detailed and imaginative in recreating a Gibson future. Similar in ways to Johnny Mneumonic, it goes deeper really by far into Cyberpunk reality. Its not near as well made a movie, but its alot deeper and more interesting than Johnny was. Fans of the Cyberpunk genre owe it to themselves to check this one out.

Even if its not what we would hope to see in every way, it will awaken so many of your greatest memories from first reading Neuromancer. This is a genre we very rarely see and even more rarely, see done covering so many of the cyberpunk monickers as this film covers quite well. Its actually very ambitious of a movie, and you can see it was made by true fans of the genre who really did their best to capture the post modern ambience, and they mostly succeed! With better actors and better dialogue in parts this would have been really great! But its not awful by any means. Its not like pure junk you find on the Sci-Fi channel usually, or a dumbed down Gibson ripoff, which often leaves people to interpret this film as being pretensious or goofy in ways, but I guess alot of people still find this genre a little too far fetched even though Gibson has proven himself to be the Prophet of the 20th century by having predicted and even heavily enfluenced so much of the technology we have now and where we're headed. Its too bad that more people still cant embrace the scope of the ideas of Gibson even today even within their fantasy's. Perhaps we'd see alot more films from this arena, So far The Matrix reigns the Champion, and even it was hard for many people to cope with. Until we can widen our minds to accept more range in our imaginations, then we will continue to see an over abundence of Hollywood remakes that stick to their recipes and safe margins for getting easy profits off the consumers dolling out easily recognizeable franchises taken from Comic Books, Video Games, and occasionally good books that dont push the feeble minds of our world too far to think.
