Even Al Pacino can't save this one- it's DOA. For a cyber-intelligence film see "Gattaca" or "Minority Report" instead. Save your $3.95 and spend it on something more satisfying like a hamburger.... Full review

Written and directed by Andrew Niccol, ''Simone'' reflects the same sophisticated fascination with manipulated life that the filmmaker brought to ''Gattaca'' and his script for ''The Truman Show,'' and Niccol smartly contrasts the bland, blond beauty of computer-colored Simone (the name is a contraction of a computer program called Simulation One) with the brunet vividness of Keener. ...

Written and directed by Andrew Niccol (Gattaca), Simone takes a satirical approach to an otherwise fantastical comedy. Either way Viktor Taransky (Al Pacino) finds himself growing more and more aware of the media-obsessed culture in which he tries to earn his living. ... Full Review
