Brainscan : Movie Review


He is a film that successfully portrays the ideal video game. Edward Furlong is perfect in the role of the adolescent who swears only by technology and who is surpassed by it on the day it gives him what he had been looking for. This concept was realized more skilfully in eXistenZ. We have the impression that Brainscan was designed for teenagers. One of the characters, however, makes this movie hard to enjoy: Trixter. He is a character with an undermined mental age that takes pleasure in auto-mutilation and demonstrating his lack of dancing skills. His performance and charm aren’t very impressive; this must be due to the actor behind the makeup.
