Too many fans seem to be blown away

Pretty Good

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Oh, glorious cheese! This falls into that category of so bad it's good. Direct to video, rental goodness. You have a pile of recognizable B movie stars who many would be hard-pressed to name, but would know their faces, over-the-top special effects, terrible (albeit entertaining) dialogue and a score that feels like it was stolen from one of the Rambo movies. If you took Terminator, Cyborg, Johnny Mnemonic & Blade Runner, starring a budget Jean Claude Van Damme knockoff, then add a touch of Cannon Films for good measure & mixed it into a cocktail you'd have this film. One thing Nemesis manages to be is entertaining. Maybe not for the right reasons, but if you grew up perusing the rental isles of your video store and had a love for low budget sci-fi/action films you need to check this out. This isn't something everyone will appreciate, but those who do will enjoy the hell out of it. Is it a good movie, not at all, is it entertaining, yes, yes it is.My Rating: 5/10

So apart from 'Angel Town' this was Oliver Gruner's other best known vehicle, probably one of director Pyun's best known films also. The plot is again about androids in human form and borrows heavily from many many other sci-fi films most probably the Terminator franchise.Despite the fact this is a low budget sci-fi action flick the plot is so darn twisty. Basically its all about a cop who is part machine (body enhancements), trying to track down and stop rebel freedom fighters. These rebels are fighting against the government that are allowing a new type of android to take over which is duplicating or replacing people, or something like that.Of course Gruner's half android character realises what is happening and changes sides to battle against the evil government assassins. These assassins are led by the wonderful low budget sci-fi master Tim Thomerson and bad guy regular Brion James, both of which give brilliantly hammy performances.To be honest the plot is messy and confusing, so many characters and names flying about its easy to get lost at times. That aside the action is actually pretty good throughout the film with some really impressive set pieces and stunt work. Its not original by any means but there are some great camera angles, cool weaponry, plenty of squib action all coupled with a low budget visual appearance which gives that gritty and realistic look.I must also give kudos to the neat android effects, the odd moment when someone gets blasted and we see their robotic interior. You'd think it would look terrible but its actually quite good, not stunning but very acceptable if completely unoriginal. The finale fight sequence against a mechanical endoskeleton kinda reminds you of something.Impressive cast of character actors too I might add, Pyun always manages to get good B-list stars. I gotta admit I do like the visuals in this film, that kind of slightly colourless/washed out, cyber punk, wasteland set dystopian future. The action is way over the top but fun whilst Gruner looks good and does fit into this world perfectly.6/10

I mean really.... burn the reels. I never write reviews for movies. Even if I love them. But this one..... This one was such a total... complete waste of my and your time that I decided to register on IMDb and give this lemon some colour.I was a little hesitant to watch this movie. The out line seemed good and the actors were recognized, but I still felt like passing this puppy up to rot. I should have let it at that. But no.... I had to watch it. That'll teach me to go against my gut.BTW; Sparks don't fly from guns. Even futuristic ones.

If you like people with big guns, more people with bigger guns, cyborgs, and don't mind the non stop action then this is a must. One of my all time favorite films.Its probably worth noting that if you don't like the above then you wont like this film, as the acting isint spot on, there's lots of bad language, and the special effects, although decent don't compare with the modern sci-fi that we see coming out today.If your a firm fan of 80's/90's sci-fi, then go for this one. Nemesis at the time for me was everything I wanted to see in a film, admittedly at the time I was only 17, however, it was everything one could of hoped for and more after looking at the video cover, reading the film description and seeing the stills from the film.
