Mike Massie Gone With The Twins It may not be possible for Dolph Lundgren to make a good movie, especially now that he's nearing the status of Steven Seagal's one-a-month, straight-to-DVD career. Rated: 2/10 Nov 28, 2020 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Almost bearable. Rated: C+ Jul 21, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member really pretty crappy and that's being generous Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member The photography and lighting are well done allowing for a fine visual experience. The acting and script are terrible and make the movie dismal at best. This movie is best watched on the kitchen TV while having your head in the oven to check for the smell of gas, or to lick the grease off the fan whilst it is running. Nibbles: Bake a Dundee Cake. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Dolph Lundgren and Nan Yu act passably but they are far too overshadowed by the weak villains, minimal action sequences, unsteady camera shots and poor writing. This is a time waste of a movie. For my full review of Diamond Dogs (2007), check it out on this IMDB link: http://imdb.com/title/tt0858433/reviews-14 Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Even by basic standards, this Dolph Lundgren movie is poor. The movie starts off really good, with Dolph fighting in a street fight and then some thugs. The movie goes into treasure hunt mode but the story isn't anything special. They talk about deadly booby traps, and there is one lame booby trap in the treasure place. There's a bit of action near the end but its mostly dull. The hovering documentary style camera work is terrible and the movie is so basic it hurts. This one is one you can skip. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Dolph is too foreign looking to play a rough and tough Brooklyn solider. He did kick some serious ass though as usual. 2009 Movies: 113 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Ronson (Dolph Lundgren) is an ex-green beret who is now a debt ridden security guard/bare knuckle fighter in Mongolia. When he's hired by an American (William Shriver) to lead an expedition to recover an ancient Buddhist tapestry(encrusted with diamonds, hence the title), Ronson's way out of his debts may get him killed. For starters, we do get to see Dolph kick ass and speak Mongolian and when he's not doing either, the international love machine is charming the ladies. Director Shimon Dotan tries to give the flick an Indiana Jones-ish vibe but, is betrayed by the low budget and his own lethargic pacing. Dotan also has no idea how to put together a decent action scene, with some lethargic staging and some really awful camera shots and adding the fact that he doesn't seem to feel anyone should ever take cover during a gunfight. Russian thugs and ancient curses aside, Dotan is the real danger to Dolph and Co. And as for Lundgren, Dolph tries hard to look cool during the weak proceedings but, even he can only do so much. The acting overall is pretty shabby and the lazy camera work doesn't even take advantage of the scenery. Also stars Lundgren's Expendables 2 costar Nan Yu, who basically is there to look pretty and be rescued by Dolph. For Dolph Lundgren purists only.
