CINEMA CYCLE
(Cardio Workout And Reviewing Movies At The Same Time)
DATE REVIEWED: 10/27/2017
FORMAT: Laserdisc
TIME RIDDEN / FILM LENGTH: 99 minutes
DISTANCE RIDDEN WHILE VIEWING: 22.8 miles
TOTAL CINEMA MILES LOGGED: 7840.2 miles
SYNOPSIS: A man is stalked by a malicious hacker.
CONCEPT IN RELATION TO THE VIEWER: How little control we really have over our lives in modern society.
PROS AND CONS: A real sleeper of a film. I had never heard of or seen this film before. Reading the liner notes it appeared interesting, since Dean Stockwell is usually a pleasure to watch.
This film is dated, since it deals with computers and hacking back in the 1990s. However, the film does not attempt to go all technical, but sticks to the basic concept of what happens when someone else manipulates YOUR data.
The film has some flaws and a few scenes really don’t flow. But if you ever wondered what happened to Tim Matheson (after Animal House), who does a really good job of acting here, and if you want to see a really creepy Dean Stockwell, check this film out.
This film is a part of my LaserDisc Collection.
Clicking on the title will take you to the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) entry for this film.
This film was viewed while exercising on my recumbent cycle. A summary of my time spent working out on my journey through movie-land can be found on Strava.com.
