Nemesis Movie Review

Kung-fu cyborgs clash in the post-nuke future in this tribute to John Woo. Olivier Gruner plays a human crime fighter (although he's mostly composed of mechanical replacement parts) in a world overrun with terrorists, sexy gangsters, and Terminatoresque android cops intent on conquering their own creators. The extremely confusing script plugs him into gory fight gymnastics in exotic locations, with far more visual style than attempts at logic. Special f/x are good despite the obviously low budget.
