Just what I expected
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
In the future a city is operated by a graft filled corporation....who are the protagonists. Criminal Slash Gallagher (Evan Lurie) manages to escape from Hologram prison and lives as a hologram criminal. Decoda (Joe Lara) is the police detective after him.Maybe a decent film in 1995. Today, not so much. Plenty of action. Wasted a lot of cars. Use of CG blasts too. Just too trite. Available on a 3-pack with Incontrol. Guide: F-word. Brief early sex and nudity.
"Hologram Man" is another entertaining movie from the PM Group. PM Entertainment put out the best DTV action movies out there. They are now defunct, but in the 90's they were the kings. "Hologram Man" is the straight to video version of "Virtuosity".The plot is: Slash Gallagher (Evan Lurie) is baddest criminal around. When he kills the Governor, he gets sent to holographic statis, which means his body is discarded for a holographic one. But during his parole hearing five years later, he escapes and only one cop can bring him down: Kurt Decoda (Joe Lara).This movie has non-stop explosions. Every car, person and building is blown up. They spared no expense on the pyrotechnics this time around. The body count is also very high, with hundreds getting killed. It makes for a fun evening. The acting is also first-rate. Evan Lurie and Joe Lara put in exciting performances. Michael Nouri, on the other hand, looks like he's reading cue cards. Overall, this is a very cool flick that's worth seeing.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com
I am not a fan of the "so bad you love them" movies but Hologram Man has converted me. Every line of dialogue was cliche from the rookie cop looking at the Rebel Detective- with his non regulation hair and perfect suits- and saying, "That's not in the manual" to the loud and obnoxious supervisor saying, "You're a loose cannon."The opening bus chase scene was a complete rip off, down to camera angles, from Speed and Terminator 2.I especially like how five years pass and every car has been replaced by sleek and futuristic vehicles.This movie is great, especially from a writer's perspective of what not to do, there are lame attempts to instantly create tension that come off as just hack and downright funny.This movie is a riot.
After viewing this movie, all I can say is "odd. Very odd." The sci-fi part of it seemed a bit overly-done; but I can't really comment on that aspect since I never advertised myself as a sci-fi expert. There were wayyyyyy too many explosions and shootings. I sometimes got the feeling the writers added all these when they needed time to fill since most of these scenes seemed pointless. The only redeeming quality of this movie was it's quirky plot in which the viewer couldn't help but be confused whether to route for the "good guy" or the "bad guy," since the "bad guy" (in terms of the guy who was the rebel of society) actually had the right idea. Other than that, there were way too many explosions and shootings. Almost to the point that it was sickening. But like a former poster on here said, "Hologram Man" may actually be worth looking at ... just to see what society should "not" be. If society ever got this bad, I wouldn't want to be in it.
