SYNOPSIS...
In 2027, a cop, with some machine parts, battles a cyborg terrorist. He kills her, getting very shot up in the process. The cop gets more machine parts. He also has a bomb planted in his chest.

The cop tracks down the cyborg terrorists in Baja, New America. He is pursued by other cops, who are really bad guy cyborgs.

The cop battles and destroys the chief bad guy cop cyborg. The cop delivers important computer data to the good guys.

Review:

Director Albert Pyun's NEMESIS is an action filled, some times thought provoking, Sci-Fi flick.

The film is set in Los Angeles, California in the year 2027. A cop, Alex Rain, whose job it is to battle evil cyborg terrorists, has almost as many machine parts as the cyborgs.

Oliver Gruner (Angel Town) plays cop Rain with a minimum of emotion. Perhaps the actor is part cyborg as well.

Tim Thomerson, looking rather bored, plays Gruner's police boss. Thomerson can be seen to better effect as the time traveling future cop in the "Trancers" Sci-Fi film series.

Brion James (Blade Runner) plays a cop/bad guy. The usual reliable James' performance is hampered by an unwieldy European-type accent.

The dialogue in the film (Screenplay by Rebecca Charles) is pretty bad. At one point, a terrorist woman tells the cop, "You're mostly machine. You're not really human any more, are you?" The cop replies, "86.5% is still human."

Director of Photography George Mooradian does better than average work here. Particularly striking is a shot, at sunset, as three silhouetted cop digs in the sand.

The film's Music is your standard action stuff, rising in intensity up the Musical scale. Michel Rubini Composed the uninspired Score.

NEMESIS may be somewhat watchable for some Sci-Fi action fans. "Blade Runner" and or "Terminator" and "T2" fans MAY dig this flick.
