In a futuristic society, "the war on drugs" has essentially been lost. The most dangerous narcotic, Substance D, causes split personalities in people who abuse it. A gifted detective (
Keanu Reeves) who gets addicted to the drug while working undercover develops a personality that becomes a dealer, which leads to problems when he is basically assigned to investigate himself.
Based on a Philip K. Dick novel, the film features a cross between live action photography and advanced animation techniques.

I took a lot of vicodin so i can`t say that my opinion is completely valid. However, it did NOT keep me awake.
Not bad - not the best but certainly not the worst movie we`ve seen lately.
Got ripped off on the cinema ticket (about $11 US), then the scramble suits and inappropriate animation did my head in! Very irritating. Would definitely have enjoyed it more if it was just without any cartoon effects. Winona`s smokin` hot though.
