3.0 out of 5 stars DEADLY VIRUS, February 29, 2004

By	Michael Butts (Martinsburg, WV USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This film is based on a book by Ben Mezrich called "Reaper." As with the film, I found its biggest flaw is the credibility of a computer virus being able to kill humans. Neither the book nor the movie explains just how this deadly computer bug is able to do what it does to humans.
On the whole, the movie version is faithful to the book and offers some adequate chills, especially when the virus takes its effects. Antonio Sabato, wearing more than his usual underwear ads, is effective, although not quite impassioned enough; Janine Turner bats her eyes well, but doesn't seem to have the heart of a true virus hunter; Robert Wagner plays a sleazy villain quite well; and Armand Mastroianni's direction is well paced.
Not a great film, but it does have its moments and makes you wonder how far we can go with computers?

3.0 out of 5 stars A High-Tech Thriller, September 3, 2003

By A Customer

An extremly high-tech computer virus terrorizes a community by turning electrical devices into weapons with a mind of their own. If you've seen and enjoyed movies like "Pulse" and "Ghost in the Machine" then you should enjoy this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hi, I'm a Governmentt Agent; is anyone home ?, March 15, 2004

By A Customer

The title for my review of this turkey says it all. May I say that you, too, dear reader, must watch FATAL ERROR - not just to drink in Ms. Turner's gorgeous countenance, but for the campy, Adam West/Burt Ward style dialogue, i.e., "Hi, I'm a (soon to be damsel-in-distress) / Government Agent; anyone home ?" Purr-fect. Ab-so-lute-ly purr-fect. Your turkey collection just won't be complete without this pheasant. Say it hasn't been a very glad day for you. Well, just click your soles together three times and say, "I HATE my boss! I HATE my boss! I HATE my boss!," pop a nice big bowl of butter popcorn for yourself, grab your favorite soda pop, slide FATAL ERROR into your player, and laugh your buns off. Oh, if by chance you invite your boyfriend over for sodas and such while you both laugh at the movie, just as precautions, I'd A) watch to be sure he doesn't don diver's goggles in the middle of the movie and B) be sure there are no printer or other cables hanging from the joists in your basement. NOW you (and he) can enjoy the movie ((=:
