A very clever story of 4 individuals - a masked gumshoe in a dystopian world, a man searching for his son, a self-destructive artist, and a jilted fiancé - and how they eventually collide. It's unfortunate that the main characters have a real lack of personality making much of their stories rather lifeless and dull (I almost turned it off) but it was interesting to spot the connections as they are slowly revealed and, in the end, it was certainly worth the watch. Surprisingly good entertainment ...especially considering this was a completely random movie selection. -- DrNostromo.com
