Description

He's a composite of some 200 personalities, each and every one a notorious killer. He's Sid 6.7, a virtual reality creation designed to put L.A. police officers to the test. But Sid isn't playing games anymore. He's escaped the bounds of cyberspace. And if you think he's unconquerable in the world of bits and bytes, wait till you see what Sid has in store for a world of flesh and blood. Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe square off on opposite sides of the law and on both sides of reality in this thunderous cyber-age thriller from the director of The Lawnmower Man. Crowe plays Sid: Sadistic, Intelligent, Dangerous – and able to take a licking and keep on kicking because he can regenerate his silicon-based body parts. Washington portrays Parker Barnes, a Los Angeles cop who once took the law into his own hands...and now carries the fate of the city in them. It's his job to shut Sid down. But how do you stop the virtually unstoppable?

    It was epic back in its early days, and it’s still worth looking at from time to time.
  • A pretty fun 90’s sci-fi / action film

    Denzel Washington is top notch in this 90’s scifi film. I’m bias because I enjoyed it when it originally came out in 1995, but it’s a pretty good action film to escape with. Also this is one of the earliest mainstream roles for Russell Crowe, he makes a pretty good bad guy in this film.
  • Great Actors, Bad Movie

    Wow 2 of the best actors in Hollywood couldn't save this movie. Awful special effects, mediocre acting and a completely brainless plot.

    Even great actors make bad movies. This movie was so bad I was afraid to see American Gangster.
  • Wow. Truly Awful.

    Reminded me of some of Arnold's lousy pre-Total Recall films. The usual "oh no, the simulated thing has somehow gotten out of whatever simulated environment it was in and is now in the real world causing trouble" thing you've seen before. Not even Denzel or Maximus can pull this one out of the Dumpster.

    What happened in the last ten minutes? Did the movie makers run out of money? Or time? It was a great movie until then - and suddenly everything just went to nothing. I'm still scratching my head. What happened????

    Even as a 99cent rental, thIs thing is tough to watch. I couldn't make it through it. I really tried, but it was just too bad. Watch anything else. Anything.

    I hate how often Apple does this, how long does it take for Apple to get the message, if you post a movie, make it a rental and purchase. I do not want to rent the movie, I want to buy it. Come on Apple, you have the movie in your database, make it a purchase and a rental. Get it together!
