" ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 rewatch. Fun and silly and violent and over the top. Kurt Russell is always great but his hair should have got top billing. "

"Straight up Metal Gear Vibes throughout the film, as the movie felt as if you were watching a story mode of a video game. "

"A classic action movie."
Yvan Menard
"Classic action with signature John Carpenter satirical bite. Kurt Russel is iconic here. Also if you want to see about 60% of the inspiration for the Metal Gear franchise. "
