Audience Member Enjoyable scifi fighting movie, just the ending is a bit lackluster. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Fun enough sci fi action flick with some decent fighting and acting but nothing that blows anyone away. The fight scenes all pretty much follow the same formula of the in ring contests or short tussles outside in the street. They are all ok but have these comedy sounding punch sound effects that take away the power of them. Lots of high kicks and punchs. Its fun no doubt but there are more intense fight scenes in mortal kombat than in this. Another thing is the characters just dont have the chops. The viewer dont really care about any of them. The evil corparation man is more sleezy than evil, gary daniels is fun as always but his fighter is a bit of a wimp and just wants a hug to make him fight better and keith cooke who is a kick ass fighter but not cool or dare i say interesting enough to really care if he gets his girlfriend back. His finance is given little to do other than get kidnapped and have every bloke wanting to do her, im not sure why. All in all everything is just kinda average. A good film to bang on if you need summit in the background while you are ironing :D Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member badly dated martial arts flick from the 90's im sure if i had watched it in my teens i would have loved it but watching now its pretty shocking. acting wise is average at best but least the director knows how to shoot a half decent fight. he directed kickboxer and cyborg, this isnt half as good as those films unfortunatly and the leads pretty naff as well. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Pyun will never reach first Cyborg's effect, still this flick is very well done, i like it. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member What you see is what you get... Not much ;) Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
