Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Doing the low-budget best it can with a high-concept story, Menno's Mind postulates a sci-fi future in which your every fantasy can be indulged in a state-run virtual-reality emporium called the Resort. Though no overt dictatorship seems to be in operation, this future environment comes complete with the obligatory band of armed rebels, led by Mick Dourif (Bruce Campbell). When Dourif learns of a sinister plot hatched by the government's chief security officer and dark-horse presidential candidate Felix Medina (Corbin Bernsen), he is fatally shot; but not, fortunately, before downloading his brain into a computer terminal, wherefrom it is subsequently placed into the mind of a computer programmer at the Resort, the endearingly cowardly techno-nerd Menno (Bill Campbell). With its odd conspiracies and illogical plot developments, the film owes less to Westworld than its far from equally beloved sequel Futureworld. Still, a nice sense of humor undercuts the clumsily staged action sequences, making Menno's Mind, though not really enjoyable, easy enough to sit through. And pairing up cult Campbells Bill (The Rocketeer) and Bruce (Evil Dead) was inspired, even though the mechanics of the situation only allow the latter a few precious minutes of screen time. --Bruce Reid

This movie would have been much better with Bruce Campbell in the lead and Bill Campbell playing the smaller role. Bill didn't impress me in this movie, and I normally like his films. Bruce has little time on film in this one, but his was enjoyable as always to watch.

This is another one of those future societies where man's quest for self satisfaction is the major motivator of daily living. Too bad director Jon Kroll didn't enliven it with some good acting or great action scenes. As it is, we get Bruce Campbell for a few minutes as an underground rebel leader who when fatally shot downloads his brain into a computer. Nerdy computer geek Bill Campbell is then forced by the tough Stephanie Romanov to download Bruce's brain into his own so he can find out what ... Read More

I got this movie for two reasons: 1. It's being sold in Russia on the black market as "The Matrix 2." 2. It has Bruce Campbell in it. Unfortunately, Bruce isn't in the movie for long, as he is killed off early in the picture. The rest of the film is pretty bad, being your typical DTV picture, but there are some good qualities to it. Michael Dorn is good as Menno's best friend, and there is some good humor. But most of the movie is very silly with terrible acting and pretty subpar action. I guess if ... Read More

there are some good qualities to this movie, it fits the genre of a futuristic sci-fi where a powerful G-man is vying for the presidency in a fascist/democratic America. But it does fail in many areas, like action and budget. The language and acting is really good though, and Corbin Bernsen made a great bad guy. The real reason to watch this movie though is Stephanie Romanov, no bouncing action, but what a fox.

I finally feel as though there are people out there making films for the sake of making a films and not trying to recreate film making history. Everyone seems to think that for a movie to be entertaining and good, it has to be a big-budget blockbuster type film. Fortunately, the maker's of Menno's Mind decided to make a film for the sake of making a film. I first rented this film and have since purchased it. It's fun to watch and enjoyable to watch again. Bravo to it's writer, director and all ... Read More
