Being one of his earlier movies Jean Claude Van Damme is quite good here. The story is decent and not too hard to follow. The post apocalyptic world is a mess as one would expect. The fight scenes are over the top as we have come to expect from Van Damme. Too bad one of the fighters/actors lost his eye during the last big fight scene. I did enjoy it and like Jean Claude's movies

Brilliant film. Van Damme should have gotten an oscar for this one.

Jean-Claude Van Damme accidentally wounded Jackson 'Rock' Pinckney's eye during a scene where they fought with swords, causing him to permanently lose vision out of that eye. He took Van Damme to court, eventually winning a settlement.

Very good for this kind of movie. I prefer these small independent flicks to the bloated Disneyesque fiascoes with Costner or Schwarzenegger.

The director has a real eye for composition and pacing I think, this is the first movie I have seen that was shot like an American comic book as opposed to a manga. I am a sucker for Pyun's work and there are actual sets and a rain machine in this one! The only thing hard take here was the budget musical score.

As usual, the cyborg stuff is a plot point rather than an FX showacse. There was only one unintentionally funny scene... dolly shots of a bunch of people chasing each other through a field, I am grateful as always for Pyun's commitment to shun any comic relief or tear jerking sentimentality.

I think Van Dam's deadpan is perfect as a traumatized and shell shocked crime victim in a post-apocalyptic setting. Despite featuring the classic male centered action film Pyun has a sensitivity for women characters. Damsel in Distress 2 sets out on her own to save Damsel in Distress 1. When the hero finds Damsel in Distress 1 himself she spurns his effort to save her since she has things under control... the villain fem turns out to be a Damsel in Distress 3 who has managed to survive through her own determination. Meanwhile our hero shows strength and compassion and is an all together attractive character. The main male villain is one of Pyun's weird blue eyed monster's with a strange most likely dubbed voice but he is fine in a camp way.

As always, Pyun gets the most babaliscious fems with sweet idiosyncratic looks. The fellows would appeal I imagine to people with an eye for big beefy beefcake too. There is even a huge crucifixion scene which I am sure will speak to some more kinky people though overall the gore is understated for this sort of this film... stage and martial arts type slapping around as opposed to slasher/adventurer type blood and gore porn.

Good solid B movie by a great dire
