Summary: The Best of the Worst
Review: Do not purchase this DVD if it is priced over seven dollars, because it isn't worth it. However, you have to see this movie. It is so incredibly bad, and yet it takes itself seriously. I almost died laughing because
1. the acting is horrible
2. the dialogue is horrible
3. nothing makes sense--plot, setting, etc.
4. looks like it was created by a bunch of college film-majors under the influence of some substance

A beautiful piece of cinematic badness.
Five stars.

Summary: What's This Movie Trying to Say?
Review: How come the arch-villain and the damsel-in-distress are the only Asian speaking roles in this otherwise virtually all-white film? With so few prominent Asian characters in U.S. media, the message seems to be that white men need to kill Asian men and rescue Asian women. This would be good on a double bill with Griffith's "Birth of a Nation."

If you want to see the "hot princess" (Rachel Shane, a.k.a. Valerie Chow) in a better film -- dancing around in her underwear no less -- check out Wong Kar-Wai's "Chungking Express."

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: DON'T
Review: My favorite part of that movie is hero deflecting bullets by wooden table about 10 mm thick.

Effects are cheap, combat not realistic and not even hand-to-hand as you may imagine from the cover.

Don't show this to anyone older than 10 years.

Summary: GOOD! GOOOOOOD!
Review: Nice action film. The budjet has been pretty small but Lundgren and the others are still great.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Descent fights okay plot
Review: the plot is based on good concepts. A dark emporer trying to take over a futuristic world and the only one who can stop him his right hand man, convinced to turn by the princess who refuses to marry the dark lord.

Really I think that seince the movie was made from pocket change, the fight scenes were great. Not fantasti-gorical wonderments to get twitterpated with but pretty good. I think Dolf is a great actor/performer who doesn't use stunt men and keeps combat looking good, even if he's paid just enough to take his buddies to the arcade.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Movie, hot princess
Review: this is a good movie. I'm a Dolph Lundgren fan, and it's nice to see Dolph back in action against his old enemy (remember Showdown in Little Tokyo with Brandon Lee? Same villan.). It made the movie special just to see the old Japanese villan again. There's a good story and some violent action in this one, also. The part of the movie that I enjoyed the most was the love interest between Dolph and the princess. Because Dolph is such a masculine guy, it's believable that any woman would fall for him, and the princess is definitely the hottest lady he has shot a picture with since Tia Carrera in 'Showdown in Little Tokyo'. I'm a little disappointed that the relationship with them was treated in a [rated PG way]. This is a Dolph Lundgren film! In his old films the babes always stripped down!...
This is why I'm disappointed there was less sexuality in this movie, especially with Rachel Shane as the princess. Her body is covered up the whole time.
The princess likes to stick fight at local bars in this movie and that isn't believable. She's not even breathing hard after the fights, and she pushed Dolph to the limit in a stick fight. That was going a bit too far. Women doing men things.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 'True facts on this movie'
Review: This is a very good movie and I agree with th person who said the princess was hot because she was. Anyway this movie has everything it needs a plot, good acting, good fight scenes, and a reasonable length. This is a great film so go check it out.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Dolph for president!
Review: This movie is actually only worthy of 1 star. However, the Dolph-factor automatically adds another star to the tally. Without Dolph this movie would not be worth seeing @ all.

The film is about as low budget as low budget gets. The bad guys dress like [...], two white helicopters that look like they should be used for island tours are supposed to be helicopter gunships, and the film seems to minimize the use of just about everything.

The story is set in some small country where Caucasions and Asians live together. A despot has taken hold of the country and only a gorgeous princess can lead a succcessful revolution against his tyranny. Guess who gets to help the princess? That's right - our man Dolph!

Much like Arnie (COMMANDO) and Sly (RAMBO) Dolph is the only guy in the entire movie who can shoot straight. He escapes certain death with nary a scratch, even tho an entire army is firing at him at point-blank (ummmmm.......kind of challenges believability, but he IS Dolph!).

The redeeming factor of the film is that it does offer a couple of decent action scenes, the acting is decent and the soundtrack approaches semi-decent in a couple of places. If you collect action movies for a living, you may as well add this one to it. However, if you want to see a far better Dolph movie (and yet relatively unknown) I would recommend SHOWDOWN IN LITTLE TOKYO.
