With the help of new allies, Luke tries to recover the memories of his past while uncovering the Hexx Corporation's true motives.

It sounded interesting; chip in the head, which isn't very far in the future. But that's all it did; sounding interesting. The story itself is no good. Too much of the same thing all over again, and of less quality. I was actually saying "lame, lame, lame" as the movie went on. After that i had a hard time keeping my eyes open, followed by some more "lame, lame, lame".
Story, poor. It's unbelievable, unrealistic (yes scifi even though not possible at this time, has to be realistic) Pace, poor. There is no dynamics, but it gradually drags to the end. Character development, non existent. Effects, poor. A partially paralyzed (?) guy called "keyboard", that just lies there all the time typing with a glove on isn't very impressive.
