Russell Crowe's magnum opus.

Pure 90's schlock right up there with Johnny Mnemonic, aka the Johnny Silverhand prequel film.

I would put Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Pulse out there as a good film about the internet. It's aged simply because how we connect to each other online has changed so much in the last 19 years, but the film itself has not aged poorly.

It always had a soft look but that might have been due to the VHS quality?

Maybe it's a Sonic the Movie situation. It was going to be called Cherk, but when they saw the immediate bad response they decided to change the name and redub all dialogue that used Holland's character's name.
