Episode 116 - Johnny Mnemonic (1995)

You gotta hack your own brain!

Or you can just listen to our brand new episode of They Called This a Movie and we'll hack your brain for you.

The year is 2021 and the world is ravaged by a virus. Sounds pretty far-fetched, right? But that's what we thought the future was going to be like back in 1995, a year when people were obsessed with the internet, despite not fully understanding it. This misunderstanding led to Johnny Mnemonic, a cyberpunk snoozefest starring Keanu Reeves, years before he entered the Matrix.

Plug in as we discuss the oddball casting, the wooden acting, and cybernetic dolphins.
