Technolust
4 out of 10
Stars: Tilda Swinton
Soft cyberpunk with an amateurish production. With a definite Gibsonesque story set in what appeared to be current day San Francisco. The design aspects varied from the impressive to B- grade. Tilda Swinton (Boys Don’t Cry) plays 4 roles, one very much in the timid geek mould. This role she did not play well, it seemed more bad acting than timid geek. Many of the other performances had a stiltedness to them. While I accept in ‘real’ life many conversations are stilted it is hard to portray that well given the media so often portrays only the well spoken. Despite that it was still a bad performance. Her other roles in the film were of various quality, none even very good.
