This is one of the best B-Movies ever. You can recognize many elements that were later ripped off by Johnny Mnemonic, The Matrix, Underworld, and Blade. It also borrows from the best - like RoboCop, Aliens, T-2, Blade Runner, and Total Recall. It re-creates the cyberpunk feel of a William Gibson novel better than numerous other entries in the genre. Two-handed gun battles, cybernetic implants, fully automatic shot guns, thousands of rounds fired, daring acrobatics, buff babes with machine guns, huge explosions, male and female nudity, sex, double crosses, thrilling chases, and good one liners. Guilty pleasure, to be sure. But it has stood the test of time more than similar films, like TimeCop. Given its paltry budget and other limitations, Nemesis is better than it has any right to be.

Not a bad little Sci-Fi futuristic cyborg flick. Lotsa action and violence. It should keep you entertained. Too bad we didn't get a widescreen transfer.

One of the best low budget "cyberpunk"-era action films. Olivier Grunner's fight scenes are impressive, plenty of hardware and a good story. Tim Thomerson (Trancers) turns in a good performance as well.

Title the same as Star Trek, this movie is a piece of s*** not worth the plastic in the DVD disc.

This could have been a better movie. I thought it was neat that the women were all pretty buff, though they couldn't act.

Lawrence L.

I'm not sure how this movie got 3.5 stars. It is a poor imitation of Terminator with a bit of Cyborg (a Van Dame movie) mixed in. There is no story, very thin plot, poor acting, and overall bad movie.
