It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Great movie, one of the few I bought to keep at home, shouldn't be underestimated just because it's a B-movie.It has enough action and sci-fi to satisfy most viewers, but the plot thickens as we see the revolving drama around Roger Mason's successive arrests, and witnessing his family dying as he stays young preserved in the cryogenic prison. It purely portraits the despair of a family man, for whom life is nothing without his wife and daughter, and in the end is "saved" by them, who call him to paradise as he is gunned down by the police.Gary Daniels portrayed the character's suffering and despair perfectly, 5 star to his performance.

The special effects when they come are handled well enough when they finaly come.The acting is very poor and in places makes you cringe.The idea is kinda like Demolition Man crossed with Blade Runner.Its not the worst sci-fi low budget movie out there,could have been much better if handled with a bit of care.Id give it 5/10.

Although made on a low budget, this movie manages to have some good effects and suspenseful escape scenes. Daniels gets few chances to show off his awesome fighting skills, instead focusing on his performance. He gives a excellent performance, proving he can do more than fight. You actually feel sorry for Roger Mason and understand why he makes the choices he does. 6 out of 10.

Why didn't one of the 8 voters post a review so I could have avoided this one. Billed as a sci-fi flick about an escape artist, there's not much clever escape stuff, not much acting, not much plot, and lots of big holes in it anyway. It's over-rated at 5, I'd give it a 3, about equal to the bummer Solders of Fortune, maybe on a par with Counter Measures. I can't see it appealing to anyone, it's even short on action. -Bob
