If you like 80s action movies, this will feel about right. This has some great gun fighting and hand to hand combat scenes, and I really like the camera work in this film. The surroundings of the city are beautiful. Dolph is great in this film, and you can tell he had a lot of fun. Polly Shannon is a great rookie cop, and she made the movie even more entertaining. Conrad Dunn is a great main villain, and really should've been in more films at the time. He has the perfect voice and look of a crook, but he looks cool at the same time. The soundtrack is also a highlight, very well done and fits the style of the film well. The ending made me smile, and was worth getting to in my opinion. The production may not be the most elaborate, but there's a lot of neat guns in this movie I don't see very often in films like these. All in all, if you're a serious Dolph Lundgren fan, a fan of old school action films, or just like lower budget action movies... this is definitely one worth checking out.
