Summary: 2 stars as an action movie; 4 stars as a personality clip
Review: Silent Trigger, especially during its opening sequences and several flashback episodes, shows clearly the handy work and influence of director Russel Mulcahy of "Highlander" lore.For anybody expecting a fast-paced action movie, this film should not be their first choice. If, however, one is interested in a personality study of the relationship between a rookie spotter and an experienced sniper, and how this may be affected by their employer, "the Agency", the viewer is in for a treat. While this picture includes some action scenes, the plot is overall developed at a rather slow pace. It seems unfortunate, however, that the studio did not include the original cinematic wide-screen on this DVD, and provides only the standard full-screen cut, which proves to be a real boon for panoramic scenes, as well as several of the action scenes in which a good part of the action happens off-screen or on the perimeter. From the looks of it the studio also omitted a few scenes, rendering the DVD shorter than the original feature length. While this motion picture is a must-see for any Dolph Lundgren fan, all viewers would be better served if the studio would finally elect to release a full-featured wide-screen version of this movie.

Summary: stylish action
Review: The beginning scene is strange, with Dolph exiting his street-level apartment with his "violin", as if he is about to go amble over to work , in some forgotten, quiet, mill town. The setting is strange..., a huge, modern skyscraper, again, in the middle of an unnaturally quiet city. Summed up, the movie does not really make sense-yet I still enjoyed the action and sarcastic remarks. Dolph's war weary mercenary character seemed improbable ( why keep working for the "corporation", if you continually refuse to do the dirty work--do they have some unmentioned black mail on him? An explanation would have been nice ). It is a dark movie and makes no apologies for that, right up to the ambiguous ending. On an unfortunate note, if you are a fan of the movie ( I am ), then you will be disappointed by the lack of wide screen, and by the missing scenes. We could hope for a director's cut release, but the general lack of popularity of this movie might preclude that.

Summary: the DVD is short
Review: The DVD is not up to the same standards as the VHS tape. It is shorter and is only pan and scan. Usually movies for rental are P&S. Collectors of movies want widescreen and full length (at least what was seen on the big screen).I liked this movie but I am [not happy] that they would release a less that optimal version on DVD. The VHS version is only P&S but atleast the whole movie is there.

Summary: good action,some excitement
Review: The picture of the movie is up to today's standard, however, the 5.1 soundtrack isn't work. The effect of rear speakers is not apparent. The action scene is good. However, I have a question? Why Dolph always disobeys his order and unable to accomplsih his assignment. And why the Agency keeps on assigning him to complete sensitive mission. It is really very risky.

Summary: Pretty good
Review: This is a pretty good movie. it's not only a thriller, it's also well-acted and well-written. Dolph Lundgren, the ultra-baddie in Rocky 4, acts well, but one let-down is that Chris Heyerdahl is very weak as the security-guard, but the others act well. theres some dramatic moments in this picture, but Lundgren fans will be pleased with the action scenes and endless gun-fire. I like Russel Mulcahey(Highlander)'s directing and the cool special-effects, you will too. watch this movie if youre looking for lots of action and dolph using an ulra-cool weapon.

Summary: It's Dolph Lundgren, people...
Review: This movie fails on all counts. The action is bland and weak, the script sounds like a third grader's nightmare, and the acting... oh the horror! Dolph Lundgren carries big guns and walks around with a hot babe in what seems like an eternity of soul-murdering hell...

Summary: Very Artsy Dolph
Review: This movie was filmed in a real skyscraper that was under construction and throughout the movie there is a thunderstorm. These 2 elements make an excellent setting for the movie. It looks very artsy. The movie is about an assassin (Dolph) who used to be the best in the business but is growing weary of his profession. If you like Dolph, he looks really good in this film and his acting isn't bad. He does deliver one boring monologue that you should just skip, and the girl in the film (Gina Bellman) has an annoying voice. However, the action scenes are good and the film just looks SLICK. It's my favorite Dolph movie.
