Strange Days........and a WOMAN directed this?!

I guess James Cameron made action films better for all of us. Not just for the audience, but for the actors and the people involved in the movies too. He even smashed the gender barrier in the world of action movies... Full review
An attempt to be original

This film did not do so well at the box office-I doubt it even recouped its production and advertising costs. Anyhow, it is probably the only film in the SF vien that explores the concept of the turning of the millenium.... Full review
Strangely Weak Movie , a better title.

The sci fi premise of instant reality in your brain was kind of neat. It also had some actors who were interesting to watch not because of this badly directed movie but because of what has happened to them since 1995... Full review

It's amazing to see that ten years after this film was released, and five years after it was set, it has already started coming true. Young people with nothing better to do are attacking people at random in the street... Full review

This movie is good from the beginning to the end. I loved the story and i loved the cast. This movie had the right amount of action, drama, and suspense, mixed with a lil science fiction. I loved the irony too.... Full review

This film is just simply masterful. It's a film that I've actively shared with friends many times over. Strange Days is more than an ordinary sci-fi flick. It's a well rounded film that give us a complete message about the human... Full review

Too underrated, and too darn good

(Spoiler alert) The first time I watched Strange Days I was completely blown away. This film had all that I wanted from an action/mystery thriller. With an amazing cast (particularly Fiennes) and some explosive action, Strange Days was a sordid... Full review

Scenes We Love: Strange Days....The few people who praised the film found it to be technically and visually dazzling....Marvel at the furious energy of this footage, and look at the amazing way Bigelow gets around Cameron's dialogue by pumping up the scene.... ... Full Review

Strange Days' is what you get when you take a fresh and interesting script written by James Cameron and in turn get the direction of one of the most underrated action directors in Katthryn Bigelow. Kathryn Bigelow has done a very good job in directing James Cameron's (The Terminator, Aliens, Rambo) screenplay into a non-stop action sci-fi thriller that was a pleasure to watch. ... Full Review

PopMatters
Bigelow remains one of Hollywood's most contradictory and complicated characters.....Kathryn Bigelow is one of Hollywood's most successful female directors, notable for her foray into "typically male" genres with films such as Blue Steel and Point Break....Bigelow could direct scenes of the rape of another woman and present such images of exploitation....Gavin Smith's interview with Bigelow is perhaps the most fascinating..... ...

Ain't It Cool Movie Reviews
The movie is exciting. They also hated the ending and found a few lines of dialogue to be inane. There's a lot of action, even more suspense and more than a few nifty explosions. ... Full Review

Ain't It Cool Movie Reviews
K-19 is a very good movie, though not a great one (for me, at least). Side note: STRANGE DAYS needs to be viewed by everyone, regardless if they like it or not--it's too interesting to pass up. That's the problem with the movie. ... Full Review
