Continuing my plan to watch every movie in Denzel Washington's filmography, I come to Virtuosity, a movie I had totally forgotten about
Along with Washington and Crowe, the movie features Kelly Lynch, William Forsythe, William Fichtner and it's the film debut of Kaley Cuoco.
Along with a talented cast, this has some interesting ideas, but it's a missed opportunity as it is routine and very predictable.
Random Fact 1: According to Kelly Lynch, she and Denzel Washington were supposed to share a kiss. However, Washington had the scene dropped because he felt an interracial love scene would hurt the film's box-office chances.
Random Fact 2: Action editor Billy Weber was brought in by Paramount to deliver a new cut of the film, after the initial cut was rejected. For his efforts, he is thanked in the film's closing credits. William Fichtner said about 80% of his scenes never made the final cut.
Virtuosity only grossed $24 million (on a $30 million budget) and was the 70th highest grossing movie of the year.
