A review by JPV852
Written by JPV852 on 2025-12-02
Not terrible but pretty weak sci-fi thriller that reminds me of The Running Man meets The Matrix. This is your usual Gerard Butler vehicle and he's at least okay and Amber Valletta and that outfit she sported was wonderful while Michael C. Hall, especially at the end, seemed to be having a great time, but this is one I have no desire to revisit. **2.5/5**
