Customer Review: killer net is addictive !!!!
Great acting. The film is 3 hours long but it really will not feel like it. It is brilliant. You really feel for the characters. This is full of suspense and twist. The film follows all the characters and pieces things together perfectly. It makes you look at internet games in a different way. The question is will they actually make this game ? I hope so in a way (just for fun obviously). It is a film that i found myself asking… If only !!! you will see what i mean when you watch it. This will not dissapoint.
Customer Review: Interesting mid-nineties retrospective
I remember seeing this when it was first screened and it was great to watch it again 10 years on. It centres around a bunch of flat-sharing students in mid-nineties Brighton who, amongst the usual things, like to spend their spare time messing about with the internet. They discover from a dubious source an internet game called Killer Net, which although coming from the US features a conveniently local setting and real-life characters. As the plot progesses the game proceeds to become even more disturbingly lifelike as a real murder is commited exactly as featured in the game. The plot is a little disjointed, but its still an interesting retrospective on mid-nineties Brighton and student life, with scenes featuring rave clubs which were at their peak at the time, the fashions of the day, and obviously the early days of the internet. Broadband and camcorders were then still a twinkle in Microsofts eye, and in order to communicate with someone live online you really did need to do some major surgery to your hard drive. Oh and you could also quickly run up a £1000 telephone bill too. The cast features Paul Bettany, and Emily Woof, plus a young Zoe Lucker who later appeared in footballers wives!
Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851) was not only Britain’s greatest painter but arguably the finest landscape and marine painter ever. Turner was enormously prolific, producing some 550 oil paintings, over 2,000 highly detailed and finely finished watercolours, and some 30,000 works on paper. His bequest to the nation of much of this output is without doubt the greatest artistic legacy ever bestowed upon the United Kingdom. It is housed in Tate Britain, London.
