adonis98-743-186503 A renegade general (Robert Miano) plots to bomb Washington using a new top secret jet called the Storm Catcher. The only trouble is only one man (Dolph Lundgren) is capable of flying it. Storm Catcher has it's fair share of good moments for sure as an action movie but it's once again far from other good Lundgren movies. The action was heavy of course but not enough, the rest of the cast didn't do anything insane to say the least and the overall storyline? Wasn't that good or well written for me to get captivated by it in the end. (5.0/10)
callanvass This an entertaining little flick, with a great performance from Lundgren!. it's always entertaining, with a good low budget cast, and an exciting finale. The effects are pretty good, and for a low budget, it was awesome especially the flying scenes!. i liked most of the characters, and it had 2 strong leads, plus i was able to root for all of the good guys since they were likable as a family unit. It started off a little slowly but then picks up soon, and becomes an action packed adventure, and it was great to see Lundgren do his thing!. The Direction is very good. Anthnoy Hicox does a very good job here, with some wicked camera angles, some really neat shots, and he keeps the film at a very good pace for the most part!. There is quite a bit of blood and violence. We get LOTS of very bloody gunshot wounds, knife in the back, with blood spurting,bloody stabbings, and a severed hand. The Acting is excellent!. Dolph Lundgren is AMAZING as always, and gives an awesome performance here, he is on top of things, kicks that ass, has good chemistry with Kylie Bax and was extremely likable! (Lundgren Rules!). Mystro Clark is very good here, as the comic relief and was very likable.Jon Pennell, is decent as one of the main villains. Robert Miano, is good as the main villain, and was fairly menacing. Yvonne Zima was cute, and does fine as the daughter, and was actually likable!. Kylie Bax is beautiful, and does fine as Lundgren's wife. Overall highly recommended! ***1/2 out of 5
Enchorde ** HERE MIGHT BE SPOILERS **Jack Holloway (Lundgren) leads a flight team testing and developing a new type of stealth aircraft, intended to be used in possible covert operations and warfare. However, the aircraft get stolen and Holloway is set up to take the blame. And then the real terrorists try to kill him, and when he escapes tries to kill him and his family. As he cannot turn to police or the military he decides to track down the terrorists himself, with help from good friend Sparks (Clark), and the track leads inside the military.As expected, this is no great movie, but it is not bad either. It is good action without trying to complicate matters. By keeping it simple it manages, with few exceptions, to avoid really bad scenes. The cast does a good job, and the story is interesting and fast paced enough to keep at least my interest up. Unfortunately it lacks some parts and pieces to climb up the credit ladder. So, average but entertaining.5/10
Walter Baeck I would definitely not have bought this video if I had known ahead what it was like. Yet I'm being pushed by my girl to still rate this movie a 3 out of 10, because it had at least some of the action I was hoping for, and there was also a plot twist that was not 100% predictable. Can't complain about Dolph's performance either, he does the best he can , but he deserved a better movie to be in. I went on a Dolph Lundgren video shopping spree after seeing Silent Trigger, which was excellent. Let's hope those other videos are better than this.
