Review: ... I don't like too bloody movies, but this is really great! outstanding! I saw it on AXN, and I was totally glued! i gave up 1/2 an hour of swimming to watch this! This is really good! My younger bro was scared, but I think COLD HARVEST is the best of the bestest best! It's so cool and action-filled! I like this because it is action-packed, yet not that violent. Really fantastic!

Review: Confession: I bought this movie for one reason -- Gary Daniels, one of the prettiest and most appealing men ever filmed.I'm not a martial arts fan per se, so it didn't bother me that this movie doesn't have quite as many, nor as flashy, fight scenes as Gary's "Bloodmoon" did. I imagine that martial arts fans will nonetheless appreciate what is in this movie. There isn't exactly a shortage of knockdown martial arts fighting here. What this movie did have, moreso than some of Gary's other films, is an opportunity for Gary to act. He briefly plays two characters, and here one can see that he really can portray a character that is quite unlike the staid, somber hero part that the dialogue/script usually confines him to. It is almost disconcerting to see him playing such an uncharacteristic personality (as the married brother) -- very unlike his performance in any other movie (except perhaps "Spoiler" which also is an odd performance). Gary looks stunning in this movie. He sports a bit of a scruffy, unshaven look here, but it works very well on him. When the camera lingers on Gary's face, as happens in several scenes where he gets to show some emotion, one can see that this face is a work of sheer art -- the pinnacle of male beauty. And Gary's physique is equally as impressive, which he shows off a little in some scenes -- perfectly sculpted, proportionate, and defined. I would have liked to have seen more of a love interest explored. (Unfortunately, very, very few Gary Daniels movies do have a satisfactory plot development in this regard. It's inexplicable that here is one of the prettiest men on film, and yet he never gets a notable love story. Go figure). It also has a sensible (albeit perhaps not exhilarating) plot that could be understood and followed. It isn't just a series of fight scenes cut together. I think that this is one of Gary's best. It has a little bit of everything that you'd find in a Gary Daniels movie, showcased in a favorable way. You may find a better fight scene in Bloodmoon, or even more acting from Gary in Spoiler, or maybe even a more interesting plot in Delta Force or Hawk's Vengeance. But overall, Cold Harvest is a solid movie from him in all regards.

Summary: DANIELS DELIVERS
Review: Gary Daniels with his British accent will never be honored as one of the world's greatest actors, but his films deliver, and in that sense, this is one of his best. Daniels plays a bounty hunter in a world drastically changed after a comet collides!!! Bryan Genessee is the villain, who also happens to be an old childhood buddy, but of course he has gone the wrong way and his vile gang wants to control the gasoline in this apocalyptic society. Daniels gets to play two roles: the aforementioned bounty hunter and his twin brother, who just happens to have the gene that can come up with an antidote for some vile plague that has surfaced. When he is mercilessly slaughtered by Gennessee, lovely wife Barbara Crampton (Reanimator) is on the run and soon joins her brother-in-law.
Nothing new or unpredictable here, but Crampton is always fun to watch and Daniels is a good martial arts hero. I had fun with it!

Summary: Great Performances and Great Direction = Phenomenal Action
Review: I hope that this is not the last movie that pairs Isaac Florentine with Gary Daniels. Florentine's direction was able to allow Gary Daniels to turn in his best overall performance for several reasons. Florentine, first and foremost,allows Daniels to act. While a lot of people would be content just to allow Gary Daniels to use his amazing combat skills without plot or character development, Florentine encourages Daniels to become a true leading man. Daniels responds by giving two solid acting performances as identical twin brothers. He does a great job of establishing his characters' dignity and emnotions without compromising his credibility as a fighter. Florentine also directs the fight sequences with attention to minute details such as sounds and quick zooms, making them surreally ultra-violent, like something out of Sam Rami's Evil Dead book. Daniels also shows why he is one of the best action heros around by turning in the best, and most intricate fight sequences of his career. The interspersal of hand to hand combat with old-west gunslinging really makes this film moves. The fight scenes also make great use of available props, like Jackie chan's Rumble in the Bronx fights. Also of note are really solid and appropriately humourous supporting performances by Little Ray and his gang of thugs. All in all this is a superb action package that will leave anyone even casually into action films satisfied with their purchase.

Summary: Mediocre...
Review: I was very much disappointed with this movie. The plot of the movie at the beginning seems to be interesting. But that doesn't last long. Everything starts to fall down after the widow and her brother-in-law gets acquainted with each other. The ending is another absurdity that needs to be highlighted but due to the review policy restrictions, I'm holding that one out. The fighting scenes are o.k. One note on the fighting scenes though: the director of this movie should have paid more attention to the details as the ropes hanging behind the stuntmen can be clearly seen. Even if you have 10 dollars to spare, don't waste it on this movie.

Summary: So action-packed, it's a comedy...
Review: If you're into action-packed movies that make you laugh at their lack of action and failed attempts to grip the audience, then you need Cold Harvest. Before one even watches this movie, a close reading of the synopsis on the back cover, reveals everything anyone would want to know about the movie, maybe too much. There are many serious, dramatic scenes in this movie, which bring the audience to laughter: The infamous 19-shot revolver, the innocent homeless man getting kicked over early in the movie, the mysterious man with a cord coming out of his back, the motorcycle rider that briefly forgets Roland's location after giving him the fiercest expression one could ever imagine, the magical moving mirror hanging on the wall in the highly emotional "beautiful back" scene, the highly skilled two-story-jumping ninjas, the painting-like acting of Gary Daniels, and the non-stop back-flipping action fed to us by the stunt men. This movie is entertaining and is a source for many inside jokes between the viewers. This movie gets three stars for being a comedy and one for an action movie.

Summary: 4 out of 5 for action only
Review: This has got to be one of Gary Daniels best movies. The story was okay, the acting average, but the action and martial arts was way above average! The only bad thing in this movie was Daniels western theme song which was so annoying. However the shootouts where great especially when Gary Daniels flipped off a wall shooting a guy behind him during the flip! So far I have never seen something like that even in Hong kong movies! So buy this movie for its great sound and great action. P.S. The end fight between Daniels and the villian is top notch!

Summary: magic made from mastery
Review: This movie is a futuristic action with some martial arts thrown in. I could never choose a better martial artist than Gary Daniels who plays the parts of a wimpy sensitive husband and twin brother to the main character a cold bounty hunter who seems impervious to danger. Aside from the awesome action and heart pounding action scenes this move had lots of subtle comedy. People who were kicked flew around a bit more than they should have. The swoosh sound of moving body parts was extended to include the turning of a head or the subtle movements of hands. Also the bad guy (little Ray) had perfect timing when executing his one-liners. Another reason I like this movie is because they let the performers perform. The director respects the mannerisms of the professionals and gives them the time to really bring their characters out. I wish there could have been more fighting in the movie but it was not made as a martial arts flick, merely an action with some strong martial flavor. Highly recommended
