The most memorable and interesting part of this film is its aesthetic although the dialogue is also amazing. Although the actors are easily recognazible, it is great to see how the design team has been able to transform it into a sort of an adult cartoon. The story will be a bit hard to understand at the beginning but as you go on watching, you will realize this is a sci-fi film and should be treated as such. Keanu Reeves' and Robert Downey Jr.'s performances in particular are outstanding. The ending might leave you with a few questions but it does leave you to ponder over drugs and the government. A must see for any movie buff who is interested to see something different and fresh. Good DVD extras which take you on a journey of how the film was developed.
