| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzGood golly, this comic book action picture is a stinker. |
| KC ActiveDan LybargerBecause it was produced by disgraced (and imprisoned) Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff, the movie is now loaded with an eerie unintentional laughter it didn't have for its original viewers. |
| VarietyVariety StaffA dull, below-average action pic, lensed in Swaziland. |
| User ReviewAngela BOk it does take Dolph a full half hour to take his shirt off but (as always) its' worth the wait ...and he SINGS!!!! |
| User Reviewwendy fA-ok, this film has so much action in it. It is a big thriller and it has a good storyline, the seqel to the film is horrible. It was a mistake to create a seqel of the movie in the first place. |
| User ReviewSarah Fits really good one man has a mission to complete but can he complete it undercover, trying to get to some one were u r a enemy is hard, but can he succed in his mission or turn over to the other side watch and find out. |
| User ReviewGerard BOne of the best action movies around, because the virtually silent protagonist just does what he does without campy useless dialogue. The Message is relevant to all people in all places: "When your assumptions and allegiances are shown to be wicked, don't just abandon them and walk away. Fight for the new truth you've discovered." And This message is delivered without a word. Stunning movie, everything in pictures with barely a word. The exact and polar opposite to My Dinner With Andre. The critics can go jump off a bridge. |
| User ReviewNelson PThe Cannon of Carnage a.k.a. Dolph Lundgren is back in action and fighting bad guys in the war zone of hell-Africa. Dolph must now spread the glorious teachings of Joseph Stalin through his fists of destruction and kicks of chaos. Dolph knows only two pleasures 1. How to expertly and skillful make love to woman and please every orifice of her body 2. How to tear apart a man from limb to limb and absorb his strength. |
| User ReviewAndy ZFantastic Dolph Lundgren action pic. Directed by action movie maestro Joseph Zito. The ending is very similar to Schwarzenegger action flick Commando, plus an EXCELLENT villain death and one liner. Bravo, Dolph. |
