    Good low budget flick.

    Crossworlds caught my eye when I saw that good old, Bladerunning Rutger Hauer starring in it. So I sat down ready to watch the movie thinking that I was in for another poorly directed B-movie, I was wrong. Crossworlds for a low budget movie is pretty good. Rutger Hauer and the rest of the cast deserve more credit from this movie, it should of been pretty popular.

    The story line is a little confusing but if you watch the movie twice over you should be able to get your head round it.

    overall quite good but a little confusing.

    7/10.

    Did not age well

    Very much a low budget 80's film, but perhaps the film itself time-traveled 10 years into the future, because it was released 1996.

    You would be hard pressed to create more 80's legitimacy than this one. I still find it hard to believe. I even checked with wikipedia to make sure it wasn't released opposite War Games or something like that.

    Anyway, it didn't age well regardless of when it was released. I'm giving it 5 because Rutger. Otherwise I would give it a 4 max.

    Serious talk: Excellent choice for a remake. Given the right cast & director and *budget*, it could be an excellent movie. It's a Heinlein story, so everything you need for an epic is already there.

    Sam, Michael, you guys doing anything right now? How about you John? When are you gonna be available?

    Brilliant

    From the first time i watched this film i thought it was brilliant, quite good effects and a very good storyline. If you havn't seen this film before buy it now on DVD, this film is one to keep you very well entertained.

    Rating: Five Stars

    Fun action sci-fi flick

    A small, low budget (but not B-more like an HBO film) Rutger Hauer film. better than I expected it to be, kind of feels like a pilot, since it's set up for sequels but with a heavy introductory feel. Decent leading characters with Rutger Hauer is his weary mentor role. A lot of fun and I will be looking out for the sequel.

    Inspiration for the Matrix of what?

    i recently saw the movie on cable and I was wondering what similarities were there between this movie and the Matrix

    You have got Jo or Joseph like Neo

    You have got A. T. like Morpheaus

    and you have got the girl like Trinity.

    Even the villains move around in suits like those in Matrix

    and all that talk in the elevator where A.T. says that the floor is still there and what they are seeing was all deja vu like in the Matrix

    Would not be surprised if the Wachowski Brothers had seen this and been 'inspired'

    • Goofs
      Laura is pushed off the rooftop about 4 seconds after Joe, giving them an initial vertical separation of about 260 feet, which would rapidly increase until they both reached terminal velocity. However, on the way down we see they're only about 10 feet apart.
    • Quotes

      A.T.: Look, I'll tell you where the scepter is, if you let the kids go.

      Ferris: Actually, I was rather hoping that we might be able to work together again. Like old times?

      A.T.: I'm not that sentimental.

      Ferris: Ugh, you don't still think of me as evil, do you?

      A.T.: You and your warlords have already taken over one dimension. You eliminated half the people. You forced the rest into slavery, I think it qualifies.
