0/4  "It's also curious to note that this film, like the similarly ill-timed Antitrust, is easily as bad at a fraction the budget."
-- Walter Chaw, FILM FREAK CENTRAL

1/4  "This is the kind of movie that you only need to watch for about thirty seconds before you say to yourself, 'Ah, yes, here we have a bad, bad, bad movie.'"
-- David Cornelius, AMAZING COLOSSAL WEBSITE

D  "No way I can believe this load of junk."
-- Edward Havens, FILMJERK.COM

  "The movie's thesis -- elegant technology for the masses -- is surprisingly refreshing."

F  "It appears to have been modeled on the worst revenge-of-the-nerds clichés the filmmakers could dredge up."
-- Owen Gleiberman, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

1/4  "The movie, directed by Mick Jackson, leaves no cliche unturned, from the predictable plot to the characters straight out of central casting."
