January 25, 2010Another Terminator style plot line and a Mad Max rip of sorts, its not too bad for an early effort, when I was young I watched it purely for the action and martial arts sequences, it hasn't got much else. The main baddie is pretty evil looking and as usual the final showdown at t... read more

September 14, 2009The worst Van Damme movie I've seen, and I've seen nearly all of his

September 3, 2008If Jean Claude Van Dame were a little bit younger, then he would've had a more successful career in this generation. Prime example: Cyborg.
This movie is so bad on so many different levels. I swear they were running on a $100 budget after JCVD's salary.
The sound was awful,... read more -
March 20, 2007Incredible ripoff of Mad Max 2: Road Warrior and Blade Runner where Jean-Claude Van Damme fights alone against the dangerous and reckless gang in his knife-fighting and martial arts scenes.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Martial arts fans will find plenty of action to hold their interest here, but those in search of plot and character are advised to look elsewhere. Full Review

One of Van Damme's earlier, finer moments

Laughably bad futuristic Van Damme actioner.

Chris Hicks, Deseret News, Salt Lake City
In the end it's a little unfair to assess Van Damme in this picture, since Robert De Niro would have trouble seeming credible in these surroundings. Full Review
