Rating: 4/5 -- It might be just another "DTV dump" title for Miramax, but I'd call Cypher (easily) one of the best direct-to-video titles I've seen all year. Full Review

Rating: 9/10 -- Brian King's screenplay make this a fast paced science fiction adventure very much of the style of Philip K. Dick.

Rating: C+ -- Just like the spies' mission as they hunt for secrets and significance inside massive corporate databanks, [Cypher's] point is unclear.

Rating: B- -- A bit too clever and precious for it's own good, it's a fairly decent yet predictable near-future thriller. Full Review

combines industrial espionage with alternative reality in a satisfyingly mind-bending plot reminiscent of Philip K. Dick at his best. Full Review

Rating: 1/4 -- Natali can't be bothered to fashion an actual human story around the perpetually buzzing toys and non-stop backstabbing and double-crossing. Full Review

Product Description:

Directed by Vincenzo Natali (CUBE), CYPHER is a paranoid sci-fi thriller that some have compared to the work of Philip K. Dick. Jeremy Northam stars as Morgan Sullivan, a computer programmer who gets a new job at Digicorp, hoping that it will alleviate the boredom of his existence. Digicorp has hired him to join their corporate espionage division, sending him on assignments to investigate the activities of rival companies. As he goes about his duties, he meets another corporate agent, Rita (Lucy Liu), whose revelations cause him to question the nature of his new job. As uncertainties continually arise, Morgan finds himself caught in a spiral where even his own identity becomes in doubt. Presenting a future of sleek surfaces and high technology, CYPHER envisions a world where the power of capital can invade people's minds.
