If you expect action, drama and intrigue, then you'd be better off watching Eastenders. Despite having a role call of A list actors (Jonathan Pryce, Martin Sheen, Edward Burns, Ving Rhames), the script is wooden with corresponding and unconvincing acting performances to match. The film is directed and produced as if no one ever really bought into the idea ... which itself could have been covered in a few seconds, and then we would have all had something better to do with our lives. Personally, this was a bad idea which should have never made it out of the coffee shop. If it had gone straight to DVD that would have given it too much respect. Also known as "The Gift". This is something I would not give anyway to a jumble sale.

Max Peterson (Shane West) is your typical I.T. guy who specializes in bios password protection. Max receives a mysterious phone in the mail that gives him all kinds of useful information via text messages from an unknown source. He is warned not to board a plane that later crashes, is given a hot tip involving the stock market, as well as the winning slot machines at a high end casino. He gets arrested by the FBI because they have been tracking similar cases and all the phone recipients have ended up dead and the FBI and the NSA think there is a national security threat behind the mysterious text messages.For about half he movie it is very watchable and entertaining, when it is revealed that the text messages are coming from a multi-billion dollar U.S. government super computer that has gone bonkers, the movie takes a major dive into unable-to-continue-to-suspend-disbelief-land. The computer, called Echelon, is all knowing and is tapped into every computer system, traffic light, security camera, and phone in the world. The movie basically turns into a low-budget version of the garbage film Eagle Eye, or a cheap knock off of the classic War Games, depending on how badly you want to savage the film.The acting isn't terrible, but it's not stellar by any stretch of the imagination. The action is rather lame and could have been left out almost entirely without hurting the film, particularly the poorly shot car chase scene. There is also a meaningless and half-assed, tacked-on love story that could have easily been dropped without anyone noticing. Oh, and in the end the U.S. government turns out to be bad but the freedom loving ex-communists in the Kremlin turn out to be the saviors of humanity. Who would have known the Russian bear was so cuddly? The extreme stupidity of the final scene cost the film 1/2 star by itself.

What a mistake! So, I was traveling and I downloaded two films from iTunes...One I bought the other I rented... This movie was so awful that I felt horrible for Edward Burns and Ving Rhames...Martin Sheen deserved this movie however. The plot was so obvious and the "danger" was childish and contrived. There was violence, there was the villain...the computer, the love interest, and Mr. Whatshisname...the star. Didn't Kubrick do this same story more than 30 years ago? The rise of the machines and the death of decent screenplay all in about 2 hours...and now I own the damn thing!!! Take your money and buy a couple of slices of pizza and a beer...at least the aftertaste will be more satisfying...
