I love this movie so much
Really Surprised!
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
I have read the novel Reaper of Ben Mezrich a fews years ago and last night I accidentally came to see this adaption.Although it's been years since I read the story the first time, the differences between the novel and the movie are humongous. Very important elements, which made the whole thing plausible are just written out or changed to bad.If the plot sounds interesting to you: go and get the novel. Its much, much, much better.Still 4 out of 10 since it was hard to stop watching because of the great basic plot by Ben Mezrich.
Despite its stereotypes, virtually 'no-name' cast and an obviously low budget I thought this film was alright; much better than I expected it to be. I was skeptical at first - the idea of a computer virus that can also infect people seemed a little ludicrous to me. But in the end, I thought the film handled the concept well (even if some scenes were a little clichéd).The cast was quite good, and the two leads seemed to take their roles very seriously. I couldn't help thinking, though, that Janine Turner is a bit of a Geena Davis look-a-like. Maybe it's just her face or the make-up, hair and clothes she had in this movie but it just kept nagging at the back of my mind the whole time.While it's not a 'must see' or a great film by any standard, 'Fatal Error' is an entertaining flick that will keep you watching until the end.
I have seen a lot of TV movies lately,only because they happen to go on TV on days like Monday when there is nothing else to do. I dont say that the are really good,but I found some of them entertaining.Even all of them has a low budget they still manage to have a decent story.This one is an ok thriller with a very X-files feel to it.I wasn't bored while watching the movie so therefore I have to say that it was average.
The movie wasn't all that great. The book is better. But the movie wasn't all that bad either. It was interesting to say the least. The plot had enough suspense to keep me watching although I wouldn't say I was actually interested in the movie itself. Janine Turner and Antonio Sabato Jr are both gorgeous enough to keep you watching :)They have a few cute scene's that should appeal to the romantic's. Overall I'd give the movie a 7 or 8. It wasn't bad, Just a little lacking plot wise.
