Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren play archenemies from beyond the grave in this action film. During the Vietnam War, Luc (Van Damme), hoping to be sent home, comes upon blood-crazy Scott (Lundgren), who is starting a one-man genocide program. When Luc tries to stop Scott's carnage, Scott fights back and they end up killing each other. But now the government gets involved, cryogenically freezing their corpses and using their bodies in a secret government project call "UniSols" --turning the dead men into android fighting machines. Luc and Scott are now metallic fighting members of a robot SWAT team. But Luc begin to have flashbacks to the final moments of his life in Vietnam, as does Scott, who recalls that one of his final thoughts was to kill Luc. Meanwhile, a snoopy reporter named Veronica (Ally Walker) stumbles upon the secret of the UniSols, and soon Luc is trying to save both himself and Veronica from the wrath of Scott, who is trying to kill them both. All of the action culminates in a wild chase between a prison bus and a UniSols van, racing around hairpin turns on desert precipices. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

    this is probably one of the best action films of the 90's in my opinion. how can someone complain about poor effects in the 90's?? just about the only way to get decent effects back then was to go to ILM. This movie rocks all the way and is definetly not cheesy, the story is good, acting is good from BOTH Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren. And for the record, Van Damme is a better actor than Dolph Lundgren in almost every respect hands down. This movie rules, and is one of my fav's. Oh and it has an amazing director too.

    I remember this movie being a lot better when I was a kid. But now, not so much. It has some decent fight scenes and the idea behind the movie is good, but it just didn't do anything for me now as an adult. I did find it funny that the Colonel that was running the operation kept getting called a Lieutenant by reporters, director made a little mistake there. If you are a teenager I recommend this movie. If you want to check it out, it is a one time watch.
