A reasonable movie...
Not really an exciting action/SF movie...
No known actors...
Decent acting...
I find the little tube around the face scary...

Great cyberpunk movie! I like this.
There was a pleasant amount of detail to be found in the direct surroundings, the clothing and the make-up. There were some lesser CG in the backgrounds, probably due to the low budget of 2 1/2 million dollars. The futuristic and fantasy atmosphere was however very well achieved through many colours, yet also 'darkness', Giger-like attributes, stylised gore, imaginative sets and (industrial) cityscapes and great action. And let's not forget the music. Food for cyberpunk, cybergothic, steampunk and bioweapons enthusiasts.
Razor sharp Blu Ray! I kept thinking you could make beautiful 'stills' out of this 
I thought it was a cracking whole and a great sequel to a comic: The DNA Hacker Chronicles.
I would like to read this again. I would also like to see more films by Pearry Reginald Teo. The man also apparently makes video clips (for Combichrist for example).
The acting certainly did not disappoint me. Bai Ling did well as an assassin, a comic figure come to life. The other actors also played characteristic (comic) figures and thus formed the characters surrounding her. I found the emotions worked out a bit in a Japanese way.

Nice camerawork, good images. Bai Ling is also quite nice. But no story that I can do anything with, and the acting of the rest of the actors is also not really good.
