Is This a Matrix Prequel?: VIRTUOSITY (1995)

Hey, Parker, this one's for you! Brett Leonard's VR-heavy follow-up to The Lawnmower Man is clearly a product of its time, but there's plenty of substance to chew on. If you're looking for a "review" in the traditional sense, then let me just say I like this film. This video, however, is a "review" in the literal sense (using the Miriam-Webster definition "a retrospective view or survey"), in that I'm going over the history of the movie and its place in cinema history. In other words, please stop commenting on how my videos aren't what you consider "reviews." #virtuosity #denzelwashington #russellcrowe 00:00 Intro: The 5 Cyber-Films of 1995 01:20 Synopsis 02:00 Production History 03:33 Casting 07:05 Filming 08:58 Release & Legacy 09:45 Opinion & Analysis 12:20 Outro TUG Channel Membership:    / @theunapologeticgeek   http://www.emagill.com/   / emagill     / writeremagill     / emagill00   PARADOX: http://www.amazon.com/dp/150321978X --------- Some royalty-free assets taken from pexels.com
