I was really looking forward to seeing this movie. Got to say I was very disappointed.
Keanu delivers his usual "wooden plank" performance". The effects are all very impressive and Gort is a pretty cool rendition of the original.
Possibly I was expecting a bit too much of the movie, but the end sequence is just stupid.
The effects are well stylish, but the storyline just degenerates.

Sorry, but it's not a patch on the original 50's Michael Rennie version.
"There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply am not there."
