Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

This film could be called a cross between Copycat and Terminator 2, but it's so much more than that. This is a film that wound up losing money, and I have 3 explanations for it. First: Sid is an over-the-top villain (almost joker-esque), which is rather off-beat for a cyber-entity. Second: The music is arguably inappropriate, and is often less-than-serious. Third: Many thrillers came out in 1995, so there was a lot of competition, to the point where this time was seemingly a harsh year for thrillers to get good reviews (Lord of Illusions, my next fave '95 film, has lackluster reviews as well). In his own words, Sid 6.7 "likes to play games". Knowing he has an existential advantage due to his regenerating prowess, he primarily focuses on taunting ex-cop Barnes with abandon, taking any hostage at his disposition. All said, Virtuosity is a tremendously entertaining cyber-thriller that is a roller-coaster of mayhem.

I would have been happy to give this sci-fi a 6 for creating a gloriously cheesy 90's flick. It is a cross between the Thirteenth Floor and Demolition Man - both of which I found really fun to watch.Unfortunately, the script was lacking and, with the exception of Denzel, the acting was middling at best. Russell unfortunately ruined what should have been the main focus of attention in this film by hideously overacting the VR serial killers persona. You might say he killed the killers character off himself even before the film had reached the 5 minute mark.Worth a watch only if you are a fan of 80/90's cheesy sci-fi.

The reason to watch "Virtuosity" is Russell Crowe, who's in top shape here (women will agree for sure) and clearly having the time of his life. All the scenes where he appears are hilarious, and the way he delivers the dialogue is priceless. Seriously, this is one of the best and funniest over-the-top performances ever seen. Plenty of one-liners and extremely silly plot developments/dialogues will make anyone with a sense of humor laugh out loud. Apart from Russell Crowe, whose talent and joy shine through, this movie is so insanely ridiculous it's awesome. Some of the ideas are actually so preposterous and funny they're original (the "symphony", anyone?). One of the best Hollywood comedies with a Sci-Fi twist.On a side note, another thing that's funny is some humorless stiff people taking this film seriously. Loosen up, will you...

Bad acting, bad script. I saw this movie because it was the only thing in the theater at the time that seemed interesting. We did not have air conditioning in the house at the the time and selected this movie to escape the heat. This was the only reason for staying.This movie was so boring I feel a sleep. I asked the person I went with what I had missed and learned it was really nothing I had missed at all.Denzel Washtingon can act just the direction and script he was given was sorely lacking, though if you liked this move then you will need to see the Joan Collin's version of Empire of the Ants.Supposedly to be so advance with technology the effects are bad and very unbelievable. 1977 Star Wars (IV A New Hope) has better effects than this.Not worth the time.
