Note de Steelwheels76
There's a saying that I think fits here aproperiately: If it ain't broken, don't fix it.
My Life As A Dog (1985) is one of the best films to come out of Sweden, and this television series holds nothing of the quality that made the movie so special. I am surprised to find the author of the novel, Reidar Jönsson, involved in the development of this below par series.

Terrence Stamp is excellent as the rambling yet suave ex-con Wilson who arrives in LA to wrap up some of that vengeance business. His daughter has demised whilst hanging out with rock producer Valentine (Fonda) and Wilson wants to know exactly what happened. With a little help from one of his daughter's admirers, grill chef Ed Roal (Guzman) he begins his quest for revenge.
This is Soderbergh's first film since Out Of Sight, another slick heist caper flick, and he uses some of the tricks he pulled there - mixed up time line, flashbacks, flash forwards and jump cuts enough to fill the enitre Royal Albert Hall. Some people will find this technique annoying, others may find it ingenious and inventive (like me).
It's cool, slick and well acted, Stamp and Guzman both add another strange character to their CVs and Peter Fonda, well, there's really not much for him to do. Most of his stuff here is reaction, not much action until the very end...
A movie looking or feeling like this does not come around too often. Catch it.

As good a movie as The Matrix unquestionably is, venturing into many interesting thoughts and philosophies, one has to understand that the father of all of this is William Gibson.
He invented not only cyberspace, but also the Matrix; the place in which you interact with information in physical form. This his hero Case did in Neuromancer (1984), and this is something Johnny Mnemonic did.
What the Wachowski brothers have done is to take it to another level, give it a little twist: What if the physical manifestations of information started to question their own existance? What is reality?
When the people in Gibson's novels are trying to get in to cyberspace, the people in Wachowski's movie are trying to get out. This is a pivotal thing that not many have cared to take notice of. People have been so busy declaring The Matrix so unique that they cannot see that Gibson already did it, and Philip K. Dick before him.
