Johnny Mnemonic (1995)
Info:
Plot:
- Plot taken (sorta) from William Gibson's cyberpunk short story by the same name. Johnny, an information receptacle, has too much valuable information concerning Nerve Attenuation Syndrome crammed into his brain and will die if it isn't released soon. This suspiciously reminds me of "Finals Week" at Cornell.
Cast:
Thoughts:
- The opening scene with Johnny in black briefs & a hotel hooker
- Jane straddling Johnny and haggling a price for saving his head
- Henry Rollins as Spider, the amicably tough and thoroughly competent doctor
- Dolph Lundgren as the absolutely psycho, virtually unstoppable Street Preacher
- Ice-T as the low-tech J-Bone
- Val Kilmer left Johnny Mnemonic for Batman Forever
