Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times Benben is a capable comedian done in by tiresome, repetitive material. Mar 26, 2019 Full Review Dave Kehr Chicago Tribune The deceptively straight-looking Benben, however, proves to be a wily scene-stealer with a very sharp sense of comic timing. Mar 26, 2019 Full Review Mark Kermode Time Out With an upbeat script and a healthy sense of humour, this is an unashamedly ridiculous affair with moderate ambitions and matching success. Feb 11, 2006 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills Craig R. Baxley's film has no original ideas, but it is energetic and well-produced, pouring on the stunt-filled action setpieces like an inevitable car chase through a mall during peak Xmas shopping season. Dec 15, 2023 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a decent-enough thriller that generally feels as though it should be much better (and more entertaining)... Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 6, 2022 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Despite the hokey nature of the plot, the lead characters are surprisingly serious and aren't noticeably deficient in offering up their lines. Rated: 6/10 Sep 11, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

John C I first watched Dark Angel in the eighties - which was impressive as it came out in 1990. However, the reason I keep telling myself I saw it about five years earlier was (a) because I was about twelve at the time and (b) because everything about Dark Angel says EIGHTIES. It's about a nasty old alien who comes to Earth to steal people's endorphin straight from their brains. However, luckily we have tough, no-nonsense cop Dolph Lundgren to sort the rotter out. It's no masterpiece by anyone's standards. When I first decided to watch it again after over twenty years, I worried that it might spoil the memories of my childhood favourite. I'm pleased to say that it didn't. Dark Angel is as ludicrously daftly enjoyable today as it was back in the eighties (sorry, nineties). It treads a fine line between being really dark and serious, and slightly tongue-in-cheek and self-knowing. Not many films can get away with this, but somehow Dark Angel pulls it off. The dialogue may be corny, the special effects aren't really that special, the acting is questionable (and the over-acting from the `mad scientist' is truly a joy to behold) and you could spend longer listing the plot holes than actually watching the films, but, at the end of the day, Dark Angel is enormously silly fun. If you really don't want to think about plot, story or characterisation the why not immerse yourself in this `Terminator-esque' action flick from the eighties +1? I defy anyone not to cheer when Dolph finally delivers his cutting put-down to the bad alien near the end of the film! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/02/24 Full Review Ajazz S My favorite Dolph lundgren he is always violent in his films Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review Gary O Was upset it didn’t show him arresting/killing Victor Manning. Also hated his F.B.I. partner Smith. He was so annoying. Other than those two things the movie was perfect. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/19/24 Full Review William D It was an okay film that should only be watched once. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/18/23 Full Review David W I actually know this movie as Dark Angel. Anyway, it's great early 90's-tastic action sci-fi with big Dolph Lundgren (and even bigger Matthias Hues as the alien) at his macho prime, kicking alien drug dealers back into orbit. A proper guilty pleasure b-movie that for some reason I really enjoy every time I've watched it over the years. It's great 80's and early 90's fare with some memorable lines from a time where movie action men were societally allowed to be actually masculine. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/05/23 Full Review Homer S An Action filled sci-fi Classic! The Team of Dolph Lundgren and Brian Benben is Amazing. While Matthias Hues plays a Terrifying Alien Villain.
