To me, this movie is perfection.
... View MoreIt's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
... View MoreIt’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

... View MoreWhen I saw this, this was the mid 90's and the Power Rangers were kings of kids TV. This is before TV got crucified by the feminists. This was when having a good home was normal and not some social justice nightmare having to do with some made up privilege and patriarchy.Sam Collins is a good kid, who becomes a DIGITAL SUPERHERO. Along with his friends, battle the internet villain known as Kilokan. This show was ahead of its time, as kids barely had or knew about computers. It was and is still a fun series.It is easy to get into, has good young adult moments while never becoming overly preachy. It is what TV shows used to be. There is no CGI overuse if at all any; it's a good clean TV show that deserves more recognition for its overall efforts to entertain.This is easy to find on DVD as of 2017 and should be picked up by all. This to me is an easy recommend and a 10 out of 10 if you know what it is about....superheroes of the digital world, while trying to balance a school and home life.
... View MoreYes, it was a fairly cheesy show, yes it has many features of what we call 'old technology' I'm sure nowadays Kilokahn is shuddering only being able to run at 400MHZ processor speed. But it was a good show! I remember a few episodes and I own the 'To Servo and Protect', 'A Skorn In their Side' (my favorite villain) and 'The Glitch that Stole Christmas' Videos. It was still an excellent series for its time :D I had come up with so many ways they could bring it back but eh guess it's not going to happen at this point.Honestly, I know the whole teen superhero thing had been done plenty to this point, but there will always be a place in my heart for the shows that display such a cool fantasy, I'm sure at one point or another, Power Rangers, SSSS, VR Troopers, even Beetleborgs had inspired us what the possibilities are. Anyway that's enough raving from me :) I just decided to put in my 2 Cents
... View MoreTo cash in on the success of the extremely cheesy Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, USA Network ran their own rendition of crime fighting youths that would duke it out with some random villain on a cheesy set that dared not hide its blatant replications of the sets of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.The story involved a pack of teenage friends led by Sam Collins who often spent time in his basement tracking the digital villain, Kilokahn. Each episode had a generic story line in which somehow, Sam or one of his friends find out that Kilokahn was up to no good, after which Sam (in digital form) would make like a transformer and go up against the electronic nemesis. The formula was: Sam and his friends are doing something fun...then oops! Kilokahn...then fight Kilokahn...then happy ending. Sam's friends were like assisting Mighty Morphin Power Ranger types, each with their own skill.Frankly, if you were not a teenage girl watching this for its young star, Matthew Lawrence, I could not possibly fathom anyone else who would want to see it.
... View MoreThis was my favorite show when I was young. I used to tell all my friends about this show on how cool and funny it was. As soon as they saw it... They loved it! It was much better than "Power Rangers" because it wasn't as corny, it had some seriouse and goofy things which made the show great. Its too bad that it wasn't on the air for a long time.
