I loved Blade Runner. I love Asimov. I love SciFi.

Now the review. This was drek. Absolute horsepi$$. I saw all the reviews going on and on about how it takes Blade Runner to the next level. If that's true, it's the next level down; way down.

This was a blend of a bunch of b-movie actors and acting combined with a couple of names and oh, what a mess. One of the reviewers even said he thought that since Antonio and Melanie were in it that it would be bad and then he liked it. Oh. My. Gawd. What the phuq has Melanie done to her face? The robots look more human and lifelike. And Antonio had one moment of acting that could be described as not horrible and that was when he did his little "look under the eyebrows mad face". Geez. It's like Zoolander, one look.

So the robots somehow had an "accidental" evolution where the second protocol was missing or suspended and somehow that enabled them to create a new robot with no protocols? Ehem, bullsheet. There was no construct to determine how Vaucan somehow moved from investigator to suspect other than the boss supposedly had no clue. Then sometime later the boss admits he knows exactly what happened AND STILL BLAMED VAUCAN! W. T. F.? I don't know how or why I made to the end of this piece of crap but I guess I wanted to prove just how strong of a stomach I have.
