That Electric Dreams movie is not everyone. Nothing really is,
but I am one of the people who were impressed by positive reviews
on the net and made a mistake of wasting my time (not to mention the
money). Never mind the computer fantasy element: is is much
easier to believe then poorly written incoherent characters and pathetic
acting. The director, as I discovered later, is the same guy who made
Mike Jackson's "Billiejean" - no wonder the whole thing looked like
an excuse for stringing together several (not so good) videos. The man
got too exited about capitalizing. Few good laughs could not save anything.
True, I dislike videos and romantic comedies, but I seem to have been
able to tell good ones more or less objectively.

P.S. Koo Stark's (prince Andy's friend) name was mentioned by Moviegoer
in article about ED. What role does she play? They could have utilized
a person with her qualifications more productively. :-)
