I saw Eyeborgs at its premier screening in St. Pete Beach, and it is a fun "killer robot" movie wrapped around a moral/political message. If you want to pay attention, you can catch the allegories to real-life situations equally involving privacy of citizens, and trusting the media and government. However, in essence it is a fun movie about robots being used to take over society. An independent film with a very high production value and excellent special effects. The robots, especially the "Reapers" are extremely well done. Very good performance by Adrian Paul as the Department of Homeland Defense Agent. I definitely recommend this movie for sci-fi fans.

Vain, cliché and self indulgent
19 November 2005
I loved Buffalo 66, so I gave this movie a try. Unfortunately, Vincent Gallo has sunk to self-indulgent lows with this film. It is not interesting, or even introspective. Everything Gallo does in this movie has been done before, and it is entirely cliché. I don't mind that there is little dialog or few characters. I detest big Hollywood movies, car chases, and all that other garbage, and I go out of my way to find interesting indie movies. This movie has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Gallo's attempt at a portrayal of a "lost soul" is ridiculous, and Chloe Sevigny may never get another serious movie role after her portrayal. I don't want to write a "spoiler" so that's all I will say. But just seeing the movie is a spoiler enough for me.
Terrible.
