Takes itself way too seriously.

Once it turns from the hardware and the action to people, you can hardly believe your eyes or your ears.

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

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.

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

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

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

Sci-Fi fun with the always solid Selleck

A weak s-f offering.

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

It's rubbish, frankly, but rubbish in the nicest, most entertaining way possible.

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