Ahhh, those lovely 90s
especially the beginning of the 90s
when we had those low budget, simple and somewhat likable movies
OK, when it comes to this one
it's low budget, simple
but not likable. This is one of those movies
during which you basically turn off your brain and enjoy it. Don't expect some good acting, script, adventure, or anything else. We have a solidly fun action scenes and that's all. David Bradley is back, with his usual appearance just like in the first film
dark clothes, white athletic shirt, unshaved, waist bag, husky, quiet (badass) voice and of course
martial arts skills, the only thing that actually appreciate for Bradley. He is Jack Ryan (a usual hero name), a DEA that captures a dangerous criminal Starkraven (pretty generic and usual name for a villain), and to increase the plot intensity, Ryan killed Starkraven's brother
so, the movie didn't even begin properly and we already have personal story
Shortly after arresting Starkraven, he is sent to a scientific facility where he's turned into a cyborg
a little naive I feel
always picking those evil villains to be a proud solution of scientists who made some miscalculations
To add that actor who played Starkraven (Morgan Hunter), is nothing special
he was picked for a part, definitely because of his bald, menacing looks. When he becomes a cyborg, his voice changes, and it's ridiculously enhanced. The cyborg make up is
funny
you can clearly see that their feet, hands and some other body parts are in rubber, all cyborg units look stuffed
like they suffered some taxidermy syndrome. So, Jack finds out that Starkraven is a cyborg, and he went on to stop him. And Jack pops cyborgs like a candy
just like we saw in the first film, so this means that Jack is using his experience with cyborgs pretty good. So
overall, a dumb, but enjoyable low budget film, to also mention that it contains a scene that is stolen from Terminator 2
he he he
Enjoy it, if you want.
