After the giddy highs of Speed, it's back down to earth with a bump for the oddly televisual techno-thriller, Johnny Mnemonic. Not just Keanu's first foray into sci-fi, but an early adaptation of father of cyberpunk, William Gibson. All the elements were here for something special, but it seems they gave it to the wrong director. There's still fun to be had though. Not least in some of the wild overacting on display...
