In the distant future, a man sits in a computer room on an island, watching videos about war. The video that he watches concerns a war in 1986 involving Nazis and clones.
The "film-within-a-film" thing doesn't work so great here. Why must we see the guy watching the movie and narrating? It has absolutely nothing to do with the plot. The plot, by the way, is lame and not very clearly presented (big surprise there). The characters are a little difficult to identify and keep track of, seeing how everyone is wearing the same clothes and there are supposed to be multiple clones of each character. The style, amazingly, was identifiable. It may have something to do with the periodic shots of future man watching the movie with the viewer, but this movie is clearly this movie. Future man says something to a snake that is in the room with him (for no apparent reason) about punching buttons and procedes to flip switches and turn knobs, but punches zero buttons. Just an amusing little side note. I will never watch it again and would not recommend it to anyone because it doesn't make sense. Know what else doesn't make sense? I'm rating it o.k. because it has style.
