Review of Johnny Mnemonic (1995) by Casandracomplex — 11 Sep 2022
Yet another film that is spun around Keanu Reaves and all that he has to do is stand still with some lame ass pseudo martial arts poses. His biggest lines in the whole film is him taking a fit because he wanted a life with room service and expensive hookers.
.. which of course held zero gravitas being surrounded by all of the have nots. The story was pretty basic and more of a mere premise without any real fleshed out characters nor sub plot .. pretty paint by the numbers film.
Ice T is a fraud as an artist and a total cliche of himself as an actor. Not to mention making a total joke out of rap and renders whatever counter culture legitimacy it may have briefly held into an exploitable commodity.
