Scanner Darkly
Jul. 23rd, 2007 12:29 pmBob Acturo (Keanu Reeves) is some kind of Drug Enforcement cop working undercover. Who, since he works under a blur suit that hides his identity when reporting in, is assigned to investigate drug user Bob Acturo. This movie is probably the best adaptation of a Philip K. Dick story I've seen. Unlike Bladerunner or Total Recall its not just loosely based on the original. It adapts the story pretty closely. Which is good, since Scanner is Dick's most personal story. Plus I like the rotoscoped animation thing they use. Adds a nice touch of surrealism to it. Especially the opening sequence with Freck and the bugs...
