Summary: Classic cyberpunk!
Review: I don't know how many times I saw this in the video store, snickered at it with my computer-savy friends because of the ridiculous title, and passed it by. A few days ago however, I was in the mood for some cheesy Sci-Fi and thought, "Why not?" Boy was I shocked.

The synopsis on the back of the video is as bad as the title, but for a foreign film, dubbed into english, this can be excused. I don't know what to say except I really, really enjoyed this film! The plot was simple but gripping, the costuming was excellent, and the technology very believable. You won't see Joe Shmo flying through cyberspace "hacking a Gibsin" on his Apple Computer with a 28.8k modem here. Only the military (and our fearless hero) are allowed Terrabit connections to the internet, and even then, the tastefully few glimpses we get of "cyberspace" barely look different than ordinary VRML technology of today. Techno-music, bounty hunters, an underground SNM club, evil psychotic gang leaders, a little gore here and there, and a very hard-core cyberpunk feel make this movie a sure cult classic.

I didn't give the movie a 5 because only the greatest movies deserve those. This movie gets a 4 because it's fun, intelligent, and the kind of movie I could watch over and over.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It is just CYBER
Review: One of the my favorite movie sort is a CyberFunk movie.
Actually, I saw the movie at first time in Cyber Movie Event in Korea.
At that time, the 'Webmaster' movie has lots of stuff about future cyber world.
For example, 'Terabye Security System' and 'Cyber Ego', etc.

In my opinion, this is not funny and exciting movie any other famous action or
cyber sorts of movie. But,If you really addicted to computer related things,
it can be really interesting and exciting movie for you, although the movie is not popular in many people.

But, Actually I gave 3 stars for the movie because, the dvd title is dubbed as English Audio. ( This title is Danish film. )
It means the point of audio part is really unnatural.

Anyway, Please don't expect the movie story with any other movie's story. This is Just Cyber Underground world.
Just see what is the cyberworld, If you do that, It'll be so interesting or exciting movie of you. :)
