A nifty futuristic thriller which effectively casts rock-star Gene Simmons as a very bad guy who just oozes evil. A fun flick.

Mr. Crichton has a much better feel for the film's gadgets than for its human players.

A cautionary tale about robots run amok that ages as badly as keyboard ties and shoulder pads.

This Michael Crichton robotic nightmare is so trite that the story seems lifted from Marvel Comics.

Selleck provides a thoughtful performance, coming across as a real, feeling person instead of the expected Rambo-esque tough-guy stereotype.

Fun sci-fi romp, with an absolutely classic turn by Gene Simmons as the villain. Coulda done without the extended make-out scene over the end credits.

Takes itself way too seriously.

Sci-Fi fun with the always solid Selleck

Lady-cop-robo-fun. Nothing really profound here but who cares?
