Reviews

Frank Markland Gary Daniels stars as a spoiler, an escaped convict in a prison system that freezes it's criminals for years on end while bounty hunters and police are always two inches behind our wrongfully accused hero. Gary Daniels is rather impressive and the movie far exceeds the expectations you have of it. One of the main reasons Spoiler works so well is that it relies more on the conflict between Daniels' personal tragedy instead of action. The action sequences (Especially the one on one between G.Daniels and Brian Genesse) are poorly staged but the story holds so much interest and the special effects are good (Especially considering the budget) that one is more inclined to go with the flow of the film and enjoy the movie's melodrama as Gary Daniels searches for his daughter. Indeed the movie ends on a depressing note and it becomes one of the few B.movies that actually leave an effect on you. Although the movie should not be taken seriously on its politics, it is admirable that the movie's real entertainment comes from the stylish directing and good acting from the cast.* * * out of 4-(Good)
SILVERBEUWULF The special effects when they come are handled well enough when they finaly come.The acting is very poor and in places makes you cringe.The idea is kinda like Demolition Man crossed with Blade Runner.Its not the worst sci-fi low budget movie out there,could have been much better if handled with a bit of care.Id give it 5/10.
ovestrud It's a pretty sad to see a man wasting all those years and almost never able to see his daughter. But at least he gets to see her, even if she was old enough to be his mother. In a way the tagline of Mason trying to see his daughter before it was to late was good.
Bob7 Why didn't one of the 8 voters post a review so I could have avoided this one. Billed as a sci-fi flick about an escape artist, there's not much clever escape stuff, not much acting, not much plot, and lots of big holes in it anyway. It's over-rated at 5, I'd give it a 3, about equal to the bummer Solders of Fortune, maybe on a par with Counter Measures. I can't see it appealing to anyone, it's even short on action. -Bob
