The production cost is small, and many parts such as shooting equipment, computer animation production and martial arts guidance need to be improved. However, after the CG effect has been qualitatively improved in 1999, the same story content has become a sensation after the adaptation of "The Matrix. Keanu Reeves's performance can make people feel his early momentum, but in the 99 years of Matrix, it is more mature and cold, MTV-like shooting methods and super cool slow motion Pose modeling, not popular in 1995, 99 years Can't escape. Keno's acting skills have not improved much. If you don't believe it, you can compare the two movies. The heroine's performance is a bit weak, and the emotional drama is a bit fake and a bit redundant. But ICE-T's performance is not bad, and it feels very cold. The strength of the Japanese organization is a bit weak and a bit fake. Although it is made at a small cost, the background/scene layout, costumes, makeup, props, etc. (the design of the guns are very good) are still in place, including some special effects, such as the fight of the guy with the laser line weapon hidden in the thumb. I have to say that the scenes that enter the electronic space are made very rough, basically ruining the overall image of the movie. Subject to the limitations of computer animation technology, it is difficult to make CG animations that are barely convincing. At that time, it seemed that it was also the era of Windows 3.x. The Win95 Windows operating system was only released in August 1995, and the server was also Unix. Even the local area network was still in its infancy. It was necessary to make these computer animation effects. The required software costs and man-hours are quite expensive. The most emerging computer games at the time were the pseudo-3D "Duke of Destruction" and "Warcraft 2"... To sum up, this movie is an avant-garde attempt. From the current point of view, it is indeed not a good movie. But it laid a solid foundation for the success of The Matrix "The Matrix" series.
