Rating:

Best-selling author Michael_Crichton wrote and directed this science fiction thriller that combined the influences of Blade_Runner (1982), comic books, and Crichton's ongoing fascination with the dangers of high technology. Tom_Selleck stars as Sergeant Jack Ramsey, a single father in the near future, when robots have largely replaced humans in performing menial labor. However, the robots occasionally malfunction, threatening human life and requiring a specialist like Jack, who terminates the haywire "runaways." Investigating a particularly nasty series of recent cases, Jack and his new partner Karen Thompson (Cynthia_Rhodes) discover a connection between the runaways and Charles Luther (Kiss frontsman Gene_Simmons). Luther, a maniacal genius, is masterminding a plot to create an army of killing machines. With time running out, it's up to Jack and Karen to match wits with Luther and save humanity. Karl Williams, Rovi
