Summary: GRUESOME EFFECTS AND FASTPACED ACTION CAN`T TELL A STORY
Review: VIRUS is supposed to be a seatedge-puller, one of those sci-fi action flics, that make you throw up your popcorn with gory effects and make u bite your nails with suspense - well, VIRUS really delivers neither! The story is kinda interesting though still stupid and trivial as hell - we've seen extra terrestrial life forms adapt and combine humans with machines before! The characters couldn't be more stereotype, the dialogues are predictable, as is the whole plot of the movie. Still VIRUS has moments for genre-fans and Jamie Lee Curtis is always worth a watch! Unfortunately Donald Sutherland doesn't use his skills at all on this. The DVD version also comes with some additional scenes that didn't make it in the movie...well, guess, why not? They are superfluous because they just extend less important story lines and prevent good pacing of the movie - a wise move from the director...but these scenes don't justify the bying of VIRUS - so final rating: Only for really straight and overall collecting horror and sci-fi fans!!!

Summary: DVD sound at its Best
Review: Sound effects incredible, took full use of sub woofer and most impresively the rear speakers. Heard sound eminating from all 4 directions with clarity, how all movies should be made and or transferred. great visuals, intriguing story. The only bad point was Curtis was horrible in this role, Sutherland was well Sutherland. I am a fan of all sci-fi and this one is not bad. If you like sci-fi, great sound effects and interesting plot this will entertain you. If not get it or rent it to see how good DVD can be when studios do the sound the way it should be

Summary: This movie is one of the lowest type of film making......
Review: With William Baldwin, already thats one strike off. This moie was the worst movie I had ever seen since Exorist II: The Heretic. Forget this movie, it doesn't even deserve 1 star.

Summary: A POOR cross of the Terminator and the Borg (Star Trek)
Review: This was a fast paced easy to predict horror flick. Few things happened in the movie that I didn't see coming. The Cybernetic organism idea is overdone in this movie. I found myself laughing to myself throughout the movie because of the stupidity of the whole plot. Perhaps the best part of this movie was watching the house lights come up in the theater so I could see where I was walking when I left.

Summary: Fun Summer Flick
Review: Yes, the critics hated this movie but I thought it was pretty good. Lots of chills and thrills and plenty of action. Quite a bit of gore but it's pretty common now in horror/sci-fi films. Curtis does a nice job as the tough female lead.

Summary: Surprisingly Enjoyable
Review: Ignore critics and their superficial taste, and see this nicely filmed, stylishly executed, finely acted sci-fi thriller! July 20! :( Too long to wait.

Summary: IGNORE THE REVIEWS IN THE PAPER ABOUT THIS MOVIE!!!
Review: I saw one and a half stars in the paper for this movie, but, seeing that Jamie Lee Curtis is AWESOME in horror flicks, I saw it in the theatre anyway. Boy, were the critics off. Nowhere in the movie did I see bad acting. The effects and suspense were awesome, and things were crashing and popping out everywhere. Curtis's performace was awesome. I was on the edge of my seat at times. You wont be disappointed with this one kids!!!!

Summary: Good movie!
Review: I don't understand why people don't like this movie - I thought it was quite good. The premise - that an alien lifeform downloads itself into the computer system of a Russian research ship - strikes me as very interesting. Jamie Lee Curtis is fairly good in her role, and Donald Sutherland, in my oipinion, does a very good job. Apparently there's one of the Baldwins in this as well. Come to think of it, there was another guy running around with them.

Most of the movie is spent aboard the Russian ship, as robots created by the alien computer program stalk our characters. I found it very suspenseful. No complaints at all. It follows the standard formula, and does it well.

No, it's not as good as Alien, but among the dozens of movies that have used that plot, this is certainly one of the better ones. It's better than Alien Resurrection.
