"I can carry nearly eighty gigs of data in my head."

Impressive, huh? Keanu Reeves in a sci-fi extravaganza? How successful was that going to be?

OK, then came The Matrix.

Johnny Mnemonic, which fell flat on its virtual face, is set in the ëNew Jerseyí and ëBeijingí of 2021, but was filmed in Toronto and MontrÈal.

The ëBeijingí hotel is in Torontoís southwestern suburb of Mississauga.

In Toronto itself, Udo Kierís ëNew Jerseyí nightclub is the Opera House, 735 Queen Street East. The church of priest Dolph Lundgren (yes, you read that right, Dolph is a priest) is Riverdale Presbyterian Church, 662 Pape Street; and doctor Henry Rollinsí makeshift hospital is Toronto's Union Station.

Johnny's recovered childhood memories are of Casa Loma, 1 Austin Terrace (seen in X-Men, among many other films) and the staircase of nearby Spadina House, 285 Spadina Road.
