The idea was alright, that's why I rented it. This movie sucks. You need to have a low IQ just so all of the inconsistencies will not bother or bore you to near death.... Full review

Pacino is good, the rest of the cast is good, the visuals are good, the direction is somewhere in the middle, and the idea of having a completely computerized woman that is all done by one man is just plain dumb.... Full review

This wasn't a bad comedy starring a famous actor who is known more for his dramatic roles: Al Pacino.For a one-joke storyline, I thought the film was pretty good, and certainly better than the critics would have you believe. The... Full review

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

I've wanted to see this movie for a while. After finally seeing it, I ask myself why I didn't see it earlier. Yes, the direction and script lagged a little bit, but everything else exceeds that. I almost wish I had... 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.
