IMDB Link

Plot:

Auto racer Alex Furlong is snatched by time travel, a split second before a fatal explosion, by Vasendak's 21st-century team of techies, who plan to sell his healthy body to an ailing rich man at McCandless Corporation, for a mind transfer. He escapes, but has no rights in this nightmare future of violence and sleaze. The story concerns his survival, and his attempt to revive his relationship with his fiancée Julie, now 15 years older and an executive at McCandless.

A User Review:

This movie was a pain in the ass. In particular, the long drawn out ending featuring the Windows Media Player visualization and the spiritual switchboard. Anthony Hopkins shouldn't have wasted his time with such bullshit. It's possible that Hopkins was not actually with the rest of the actors (Estevez, Russo, etc.) when the movie was being filmed. I suspect he might of filmed his parts separately, either before or after the rest of the filming out of disgust. I find it remarkable that Hopkins decided to act in such a horrendous film only a year after Silence of the Lambs, his masterwork.
