Synapse Movie Review

Black-marketeer Andre (Chris Makepeace) is double crossed by a partner and arrested by Life Corp., which runs this futuristic civilization. As an experimental punishment, his mind is implanted into the body of Celeste (Karen Duffy). The plot, screwy as it is, takes precedence over the poorly staged action scenes, and the acting is a cut above average for the genre. Unfortunately, the scene in which a woman performs brain surgery on herself isn't as neat or as gross as it could have been.

1995 (R) 89m/C Karen Duffy, Saul Rubinek, Matt McCoy, Chris Makepeace; D: Allan Goldstein. VHS AVE
