Reviews
TekWar: TekJustice has received mixed reviews from both critics and audiences since its release. On IMDb, it holds a moderate rating of 6.0/10, reflecting a division between viewers who appreciate its unique blend of cyberpunk aesthetics and those who find its narrative and production values somewhat dated or uneven. Critics have noted the film's strengths in its conceptual ambition and the engaging presence of Greg Evigan as the lead. However, some reviews from the period noted that the special effects and pacing might feel slow or low-budget compared to theatrical sci-fi films of the time. Rotten Tomatoes does not have an official critics' score for this TV movie, indicating limited mainstream critical attention. Fans of 1990s science fiction TV and William Shatner's related work often cite TekWar: TekJustice as a cult favorite, praising its atmospheric world-building and thematic ambition despite its limitations. For viewers interested in early cybercrime and cyberpunk media, the film holds nostalgic and genre significance, though it might not satisfy those expecting high-end visual effects or a tightly woven plot.
