Rating: Summary: This was a great action movie, a must see for action lovers! Review: I first went to see this movie I expected a O.K. action movie. I new that Kurt Russell was a good actor so I thought it would be decent. What I saw, though, was a excellently done action movies with good special effects. Also another thing about this movie was that the way he reacted in certain situations seemed lifelike, such as when he was battling the new army. Kurt Russell also did a great job in acting, and he really did not even talk that much at all, which would be extremly hard to do, when he is used to talking in his movies. This was alot better than I thought and a must see if you love action movies
Rating: Summary: Escape from Earth? Review: I've loved everything Kurt Russell has done since Escape from New York,however this story seems rather one-dimensional. You can pretty much predict the following scenes way before they happen,as well as the ending,due to following old formulas that have worked well in the past for less demanding audiences. Action being of paramount importance,this production delivers,meeting all expectations. Special effects,while not top notch,are only marginally below what might be expected for a high budget si-fi. Emotional behaviors of men trained exclusively for war are well conveyed throughout,but may miss the mark for those not exposed to the rigors of diversity. The DVD version has both widescreen and standard formats,something that should be included on all discs. Well worth the price of admission.
Rating: Summary: Not a movie for everyone, but I thought it was awesome! Review: Everyone always complains that Kurt Russel doesn't say enough in this movie but I thought it made the movie cooler. The weapons and action in this movie are really great. The sets and special effects were also very good. Although Paul Anderson could have had better music in the movie.
Rating: Summary: Nice blend of action/sci-fi Review: This is one of those types of movies like Road Warrior where the action works best with less talking. Nice popcorn movie.
Rating: Summary: SuPeRb!!!!! KURT RUSSELL & JASON SCOTT LEE ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!! Review: THIS IS A GREAT MOVIE!!! KURT RUSSELL IN PROBABLY ONE OF HIS BEST ROLES!!! THE ACTION IS RELENTLESS!!!

IF YOU GET A CHANCE TO SEE THIS MOVIE? JUST SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE RIDE!!!
Rating: Summary: Surprisingly Unoriginal Schlock Review: Not one original idea! Which is the biggest shock, since this was written by David Webb Peoples, the on responsible for Blade Runner, 12 Monkies and Unforgiven. Here he is trying to cross the Sci-Fi genre with the Western genre and comes up with a boring knock off of every movie in those genres. And what should have made up in unorginal ideas in the script should have been the action scenes. But yet another surprise happens. These action scenes are no good, even boring. The surprise being that the movie was also directed by Paul Anderson, who directed the fun martial arts film Mortal Kombat, which was supported by it's incredible martial arts scenes. Produced by Jerry Weintraub's JW Productions, which also produced The Avengers, and like The Avengers, Soldier had everything going for it, and just collapsed by it's lack of originality.
Rating: Summary: WELL DONE!!!!!!!! Review: tHIS IS ONE HELL OF A MOVIE, THAT WAS UNJUSTLY IGNORRED BY CRITICS AND PUBLIC. tHIS IS ONE OF KURT RUSSELS BEST FILMS EVER. IT FOLLOWS IN THE GREAT TRADITION OF BLOWING STUFF UP, SET BY OTHER FILMS LIKE TERMINATOR 1 AND 2.
Rating: Summary: Kurt Russel Strikes Again!! Review: Kurt Russel is phenomenal in this awesome sci-fi action film. He plays a soldier who gets replaced by cyborgs, and put in a obsolete land, but soon gets revenge. This is a must see!!!
Rating: Summary: Realistic... But need MORE 'surprising' action stunts! Review: Kurt Russel plays the 'old-fashioned, obsolete' soldier whose squad got 'replaced' by a better team. And towards the end, he alone, single-handedly, down-ed the whole 'other' squad before setting course for refuge, at the Trinity Moons.Being a fan of science-fiction movies, i might be biased in saying that this is a good movie to spend your weekend watching. However, much of what's portrayed in the movie, i believe is already in practice in the military workforce. So much for the 'tough-guys' thang ! :p
Rating: Summary: Whens the sequal Review: I cant imagine why anyone wouldnt like this movie. I recently discovered it didnt do well in the box ofice. that was a surprise to me, I've liked this movie since the first time i saw it on TV and I think with creativity a sequal could be made. If you agree say this review was helpful to you.
