I remember going to see that when it first came out just to see Henry Rollins try to act... it was worth it. :D

pneumonic - like a pneumatic lift?!? jk. yah is mnemonic.

its not nearly as good as the matrix. the story is so so and the acting is horrible, esp by henry rollins (from rollins band, and i thought the band was the worst thing he could do...)

The story by William Gibson is very good. It is in a collection entitled "Burning Chrome" - I highly suggest reading it!

henry rollins overacts even when he isnt acting. Ever see Rollins Band live? It's as if he is flexing during every song.

It's got a mercenary street preacher in it. How many movies can claim that?

:cool:

Yah, the whole book rocks. The movie is ass, though. I wish they'd make more William Gibson books into movies. I'd love to see a movie version of Neuromancer.

Hehe, I saw this movie when it first came out. Funny thing is when we got back to my friends house I had a funny feeling in my nose and ran over to the sink, let out a MONSTER sneeze and sprayed blood EVERYWHERE. It was just like the movie!! :D

It's worth it because of Dina Meyer. The same applies to Dragonheart, Bats, and Starship Troopers.
