User Reviews

Harve Bennett tv series

Gemini Man was a fun Harve Bennett tv series about a guy that could go invisible for 15 seconds after clicking a watch. Half of it's twelve episode was never aired. The best episode was 'Minotaur' that had a huge killer robot patrolling a vast complex. It was the creation of a mad scientist upset about something. Much like a few of the episodes of The Six Million Dollar Man. It was last shown on the Sci-Fi Channel (USA).
