eXistenZ

eXistenZ (1999) – Male enhancement jokes aside, this one plays with the usual VR puzzles but tends well toward the obvious; the film has a good cast and interesting art design, but the plotting is weak and it’s not entirely clear how much of the wooden acting, bad dialogue, and pacing issues are intentional and how much are unintentional, and on the balance, the film can be hard to care about; and you know, eXistenZ itself doesn’t really seem like much of a game, honestly. 5
