I liked it alot. I assume you speak of the one will ol' Bill Gibson and
Jaron Lanier about the Cyberpunk "movement," n'est pas? If so then I
thought is wuz a fascinating look at the whole ideal, especially for
anyone who knowz nothing about it. It coverz alot in the short period
of the documentary. Only problem I really had with it wuz that long

in it, or even just wanna see something interesting, check it out.
