  Furthur speculation on the Frankenstein hypothesis, namely: does the thing created to emulate life actually possess a soul? A computer programmer is suspected of murdering his employer, but did he? The only clue is in the new project - untested as of yet, in this piece that borrows style from Blade Runner, Dark City and Tron.

  The Thirteenth Floor, what was I thinking when I watched this Movie at first? There is really no point in the Movie. This is weird.

  Sort of a matrix wanna be but not too bad.

  The Thirteenth Floor is a very different plot. A man is found dead whom created this virtual world that transports people back to the 1930's. The problem is there becomes different worlds and the people change throughout...a friend in one might be an enemy in another...very good twist and turns.

  Cool murder-mystery twisted reality cinema-noir thriller. The twists were a bit confusing at times, but it had a nice payoff.

  All I remember about this one was that it was a pretty weak Matrix rehash that tried to go the drama route instead of an action one.

  The Thirteenth Floor was Columbia Pictures answer to the Matrix and is based on the award winning 1964 Sci-Fi novel, Simulacron 3 by Daniel Galouye. I have known about this movie for a long time, but was always hesitant to see it, because when something like this appears in theaters 6 months after a groundbreaking film like the Matrix, you fully expect it to be a complete rip off. I was sitting at home flipping through the channels and saw the Matrix on, but I didn't wanna see it for the millionth time and decided to see if the Thirteenth Floor was streaming and sure it enough it was, and what a terrific story it turned out to be! In the year 2000, scientists have found a way to transfer a persons consciousness into a fully interactive computer program which has the potential to replace video games. The creator however has discovered a major problem with the system and is found dead. The second in charge of the project soon learns the answer to this brutal murder appears in the simulator, which is a replica of 1937. The story is absolutely ingenious and I loved how the film jumps between present day and the 1930s, it was like watching two stories at once that you knew would eventually come together. Craig Bierko stars in what turns out to be one of his few leading roles and he's just terrific. I remember him as the bad guy in the Long Kiss Goodnight and I thought he was great then, and he's great now. To make the cast even stronger, they take the intense Bierko and pair him with Law & Order's Vincent D'Onofrio, who is quite possibly the most intense actor in Hollywood. To top the whole thing off, this movie has a huge twist in the end, a twist that will make a lot of people wonder about the true nature of their own reality. The Thirteenth Floor is a fresh story with an amazing cast that will make you think, movies like this don't come along as often as they should!

  While the premise and visuals are unique and have tons of potential, the weak script and far out there plot put a damper on anything good that works in the film.

  Twisty turny Matrix-ey sci fi about a virtual reality parallel universe set in the 1930's and the scientist who goes visit to avoid being arrested for murder. Sadly the acting, pedestiran, doesn't live up to the plot and the final scene is unnecessary padding. Apart from that, not bad. Not great, but not bad.

  A interesting film that strikes me as a wanna be "Dark City." The Thirteenth Floor isn't a terrible film, it has some decent performances and it's well made without an overdose of CGI (the cinematography is very good), and the idea is interesting about the creation of virtual worlds, but I predicted the whole movie as it unfolded before me. I wish the writers had gone the extra mile and tightened the story.

  I wasn't blown away by any of the performances, but the story and the twist had me completely hooked.

  Not a total dud but not very memorable either, "The Thirteenth Floor" is mostly a hit-or-miss affair that ends on a dull note but is at least entertaining enough so that your time spent watching it doesn't feel completely wasted. The visuals are nice and the premise is clever, but the script is bland and uninspired and the acting is pretty unremarkable. It's moderately interesting, but that's about the only thing that "The Thirteenth Floor" has going for it.

  Released at the same time as The Matrix, this film stood no chance whatsoever. It deals with similiar themes but on a lower budget and with little action. And so now, with Inception (of which this also shares themes) having been released, it's the perfect time to get hold of this film and give it a try.

  Not what I expected but . . . pretty good!
