Small Soldiers (1998) *
A toy company implants a high-tech military chip (used for smart bombs and self-guiding missiles) into their latest product. As result, there's an army of self-programming toy soldiers on the loose, mercilessly slaughtering their ennemies (human and plastic alike). A shameless, feature-length ad campaign with nifty special effects. The first hour and a half is really boring, but things improve somewhat in the last 15 minutes.
