       A sci-fi fantasy about a world where it is illegal to enjoy any kind of media except in a place called Megaville. After catching a brutal killer named Jenson, the media police send an agent, Palinov, to infiltrate Jenson's circle of criminals in Megaville because Palinov bears a striking resemblance to Jenson. Palinov, however, begins to suffer intense headaches and has visions of the killings. His mission becomes even more confusing when the president of Megaville is assassinated and the media police seem more interested in doing business with the criminals than catching them.

Megaville's motto was it was "Total Recall" Meets "Terminator." Where? In the toilet? Interesting premise, sadly so very badly executed. My stepfather and I usually LOVE these types of movies, this one was a sure-fire corker. It was one of THE most boring pieces of brain-bashing tripe I've ever seen in my life. Saw it when I was 17. I'm 38 now and *still* hate it. Congrats, Megaville! You've been at #1 of the most boring moves of all time for 21 years!! And with all the recent Hollywood 'blockbuster' rubbish that's quite an accomplishment! Good thing this waste product was only $1 to hire. Waste of that even.

The hero was flat as a pancake and when the moron was finally shot in the head at the end, I said "Thank the Gods for that!" and my stepdad seconded it. Good thing we also had pizza & juice.

Total snoozer. Watch if you are in need of a cure for insomnia or need to laugh hysterically at how bad a so-called movie can get.

Waste of time, money & brain cells.

Sad as it promised to be SO much better... sigh... Much sadder that these idiots have so much money to make movies and they make shite, when people like me have zillions of amazing ideas but lack the $$ and contacts to make our unique voices heard. Stupid matrix or a world we live in :( as bad as that GODawful Megaville...
