IMO - It's not terrible but not a masterpiece either. I personally liked the villain robot, and a lot of the movies' aesthetics were just pure eye candy.

That aside, the movie was a little too slow paced for the style that it was going with, and some of the music and sound effects were a little silly.

You get to listen to Iggy say a few amusing lines on the radio in the beginning and the end of the movie.

Overall, not bad, a little boring at times. A good watch if you're into cyberpunk.
