Movie Review: Virtual Reality Is Real
Summary: 5 Stars
This ingenious, innovative and imaginative SF series was underrated, unappreciated and largely undiscovered. Lori Singer sensitively portrays the lonely genius Sydney Bloom, who doesn't comprehend her own potential. Michael Easton is the perfect Duncan - the savvy, empathic and dedicated childhood friend to Sydney. Anthony Stewart Head is every bit the handsome hunk of the Taster's Choice Commercials and the intelligent and suave mentor of Buffy the Vampire Slayer - rolled into one!
From the riveting pilot's original airing on March 10, 1995 to the first run of the last episode on May 12, 1995, I was enraptured by the imagination of the writers and their ability to make it all believable.
The special effects were ingenious and unjudgeable - being that they were meant to portray various views into the inner workings of the subconscious minds of Sydney's targets. The sky was the limit - and the limit was explored in every episode.
Sadly, Fox Television once again grew impatient too soon and cancelled the show without even a complete season in the can. I still marvel that they stuck with The X-Files long enough for it to catch on, when they have cancelled so many excellent shows with much less consideration.
Please find it in your heart to seek out this series on DVD. If you haven't seen it, you really must!
