| User ReviewCraig HLOVE this movie...it's just super. It really is. Fantastic story line, some good funny bits...love it. |
| User ReviewArran CThere is an intimate TV feel to this movie (and that's not a bad thing), which shows the escape, decline into drink and comeback of an East German refugee athlete played by Lundgren. Hot in his heels is his trainer from his youth played by Soul. Roger E. Mosley steals the show as his employer and volunteer personal trainer, but Lundgren also puts in a good performance. Some of the situations feel a little contrived, and one feels slightly shut in by whatever point the director is trying to make, rather than letting the characters truly breathe. Nevertheless, an enjoyable and refreshingly different film for those who would rather watch a fairly well made, but original story instead of a beautifully made but totally predictable blockbuster. It definitely has its moments, and it is interesting enough to give you pause for thought afterwards. |
| User ReviewAllan CIf it worked for gymnastics in "Gymkata," why not make an action film about pentathletes. Dolph Lundgren plays an East German Olympic defector who has to use his pentathlon skills (fencing, shooting, swimming, riding, and cross-country running) to escape the repressive regime and later to fight off his evil ex-coach, David Soul, who has tracked him down in America working at a greasy spoon diner owned by Roger E. Mosley. I did enjoy David Soul as the film's villain and it made wish he was in more stuff post-Starsky & Hutch, but overall this film is about what you would expect. |
