“Am glad I watched this movie before reading reviews from this site!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAs someone who is not usually much for action movies, but am a gamer and love technology, this movie was very intriguing and enjoyable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhile there may very well have been weaknesses in the film, by allowing myself to feel a part of the experience and engage what was presented, I found the movie to be very good.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI went in with no particular expectations, and walked away sufficiently happy with my viewing, even to the point of encouraging another friend to watch it as well.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYes, the movie is a bit weak in the acting/story at times, and somewhat predictable. But, if you can watch it for what it is, and enjoy the unique aspects of the movie and set aside the points I mention above, you can also have a positive viewing of this movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Virtual Reality aspect of this movie was what drew me to it, and the presentation of the VR was excellent to me. It looked cool and was believable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eStill find it hard to see why some people are rating this movie so harshly. Was it an Emmy winner? Um, no. Was it a nice sci-fi action flick with a VR twist worth watching? For me, absolutely!”
