Overrated

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

WOW I don't understand this movie at all it's impossible to completely follow. All I know is that the movie takes place in a future were TV is outlawed and Raul Julia plays Aram Fingal who broke the law by watching Casablanca It also has virtual reality simulation that seems to have replaced TV. Aram Fingal gets transported into Casablanca and becomes Rick Blaine the bad guy is also in the movie pursuing Fingal there is even a Peter Lorre charter.The rest of the movie is just bad low budget special effects dancing and there a little kid who switches tags that causes problems I just don't get this movie or way Raul Julia is in it? Did i mention the stock footage from animals are beautiful people.

I loved Overdrawn at the Memory Bank simply because MST3000 did a wonderful job bashing the movie. Fingal (Raul Julia) is some Casablanca junkie who gets "doppled" into a body of a monkey for compulsory prophylactic rehab when his body becomes tampered with by a demonic child, sending him for a sex change operation instead! This somehow causes an energy surge in which Fingal stops dabbling in dopples and becomes trapped into the supercomputer HX368. He then uses his wit and cunning to make it through his self-perpetuated reenactment of Casablanca and to become interfaced with the HX368. All the while the computer which holds Fingals' memories and conscious are on the verge of being obliterated by the short shelf life of doppling cubes. I don't recommend buying this movie unless of course it is Volume 4 of MST3000 DVD set. I liked it for it's humor and weird filming effects. The whole movie is filmed like a dream sequence, with a slight haze around the lenses of the cameras.

I actually got a headache from watching this film. I can't remember the last time that I felt that bad from watching a show. I won't even explain this move because you have to experience the pure nausea inducing movie to truly discover why life is so precious. I doubted everything, even the existence of myself, after about three minutes of this film. I don't remember much of the end. Just that it hurt. What I do remember involves a mysterious woman in a clam, a matrix like premise, doopling, cinemas, The guy who played in the Adams Family, a love story, A fat man, a bartender, and a headache. Just thinking about this makes me want to vomit. DOOPLING!

A muddled story of computer programmer Aram Fingal (Raul Julia) who works for vicious corporation Novicorp. They transfer his mind to that of a baboon (a good metaphor for the whole movie), and from there, Aram gets caught in the computer and creates his own world, in which he gets to be Rick from "Casablanca". One of his co-programmers (Linda Griffiths) tries to help him get back into the real world.It's little more than a "Tron" ripoff. Trying too hard to be funny, the whole thing ends up idiotic. Granted, the movie wasn't a total waste: "MST3K" did a great job ripping it apart. What is really hard to believe is that Raul Julia starred in "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank" the same year that he starred in "Kiss of the Spider Woman"!
