Virtousity (1995) - MS 02 01

Show Notes

In the season 2 opening of Midnight Showing, Luke and Nash take a look at Virtuosity, an interesting Sci-Fi film starring Russell Crowe and Denzel Washington. 

- Set in the close future of 1999, Denzel Washington plays the role of Parker Barnes, a former detective who is serving out a 17 year sentence in Prison. Barnes of course is one of the best police officers the city has ever seen, forcing the department to call upon him whenever they are in the dire need for his services. Being set in the future, Barnes is tasked with entering a Virtual Reality, in which a virtual Serial Killer played by Russell Crowe is wreaking havoc within  the program. In the first confrontation we see between Barnes and SID, Barnes' partner is killed within the Virtual Reality, causing him to die in real life. With a dead body on their hands, the creators of the program are forced to shut down the virtual reality they have spent countless hours pouring their life into. Having spent so much time creating SID and his reality, the creator of the program takes the insane route of actually putting SID into the real world through the use of NanoTechnology. Being the only person who has ever successfully tracked down SID in the VR, the police force must call upon Barnes to track down SID in the real world. -

What is Midnight Showing?

Luke and Nash are here to cut through the deadpan absolution of movie reviewers and critics. Come join the conversation of the films that moved you, for better or worse, over the years and recently released. At Midnight Showing we’re all audio logs giving our piece from whatever hits that silver screen. We want your own opinions because a good movie gives more than just two hours of screen time and even a bad one can reward wasted time with new ideas. So tune in every Friday at Midnight and welcome in the banter.
