Hologram Man Audience Reviews

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Logan Dodd There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
Madilyn Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Michael Ledo In the future a city is operated by a graft filled corporation....who are the protagonists. Criminal Slash Gallagher (Evan Lurie) manages to escape from Hologram prison and lives as a hologram criminal. Decoda (Joe Lara) is the police detective after him.Maybe a decent film in 1995. Today, not so much. Plenty of action. Wasted a lot of cars. Use of CG blasts too. Just too trite. Available on a 3-pack with Incontrol. Guide: F-word. Brief early sex and nudity.
Comeuppance Reviews "Hologram Man" is another entertaining movie from the PM Group. PM Entertainment put out the best DTV action movies out there. They are now defunct, but in the 90's they were the kings. "Hologram Man" is the straight to video version of "Virtuosity".The plot is: Slash Gallagher (Evan Lurie) is baddest criminal around. When he kills the Governor, he gets sent to holographic statis, which means his body is discarded for a holographic one. But during his parole hearing five years later, he escapes and only one cop can bring him down: Kurt Decoda (Joe Lara).This movie has non-stop explosions. Every car, person and building is blown up. They spared no expense on the pyrotechnics this time around. The body count is also very high, with hundreds getting killed. It makes for a fun evening. The acting is also first-rate. Evan Lurie and Joe Lara put in exciting performances. Michael Nouri, on the other hand, looks like he's reading cue cards. Overall, this is a very cool flick that's worth seeing.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com
Frank Markland ********Possible Spoilers******** Joe Lara stars as Dakota a by the book cop who captures Slash Gallagher (Evan Lurie) however in hologram form it becomes apparent that he is even more powerful(One of the film's biggest plot holes.) and it seems that it is only Dakota who can stop him. Michael Nouri stars as President Jameson who is sorely underused. I want to make one thing clear, a hologram is nothing but a virtual image, the level of suspension of belief we are asked to swallow is a fairly tall order especially that we are never told how exactly you make a person a hologram and how exactly can they contain the same intelligence and memories of the person. Or for that matter how they are able to fight and all that. Straight to video science fiction is always a tall order to follow but such numerous plot'holes really distract the viewer. For instance the hero goes and snatches the antagonists' body and destroys it, despite the obvious fact that it is probably far easier to kill the villain in human form than as hologram form. Also the other annoying plot angle is just exactly how Lurie's character has become so powerful, if you are going to make a hologram the strongest why use it on the most dangerous person in the world? This is just crazy. Sadly Hologram Man is unbearable to watch because the action sequences are shot without flair and basically consist of bad guys winning and then losing as the hero arrives. There are so many questions raised by the premise (and the premise is very questionable to begin with) that we wonder exactly how the world got this way and why for instance is automatically the corporations running the show? What happened to the old way? The film doesn't care and therefore it proceeds to fling itself to one action sequence to another. The action sequences (Excepting the one that involves John Amos)are all boring and derivative of The Terminator, Demolition Man and Robocop. One especially noticeable steal is from They Live involving a machine spotter to which Lurie hits with a shotgun. I could go on on how ludicrous this all is but I have to state the obvious, movies like this live or die by the ambitions taken with the material. Hologram Man is bankrupt in all essential areas and in the end it all becomes a tiresome effort which recalls far superior movies. The only real life in the movie comes from Michael Nouri, John Amos and William Sanderson but they are so annoyingly underused that they can't save this turkey.* out of 4-(Bad)
Laura B-3 Another excellent Joe Lara movie. All the cast were great but Joe is my favorite. I saw this one quite a few times too. You gotta see this Sci-fi. It's another action flick. It's real cool.
