Strange Days (1995)

My quick rating - 7,9/10. (previous review) : So if you have or have not seen it, watch it. Spectacular movie.(2021) Lenny (played extraordinarily well by Ralph Fiennes) is a drug dealer and ex cop, peddling the latest high, "jacking in" which are illegal VR clips that put you in the event and you can hear/feel/smell everything. Think of the possibilities! Anyway, this mystery is that of a black jack video (think snuff flick) that captures a political murder, he must team up with his limo driving buddy Angela Basset and his still cop friend Tom Sizemore to piece together the whole conspiracy. In doing so he must figure out how his ex girlfriend (Juliette Lewis) and scumbag boyfriend (Michael Wincott, "The Crow") are involved in the whole cover up. The all star cast also includes Vincent D'Onfrio as a beat cop who may be more than just that. Along with a lengthy explanation of what you are about to see, I will just say that the scenery is phenomenal. Camera angles swoop in and out to really get you in the feel of what is going on, not just in the VR clips. So much attention to detail in this one, to the point I can watch it every year and still not get bored of it. Enjoy!!!
