Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

Wrighthead While this movie is enjoyable to watch, it is by no means a masterpiece in storytelling. Despite being classed by many as a "B-role" film or an "indie classic", it is clear that in 1991 this movie was well funded though possibly not well advertised.The best attributes of the film is wardrobe and camera use. Throughout the film, unique and interesting camera angles are used in a way that is seldom seen today and what characters lack in depth is made up for in wardrobe.While 'biker gang' is how the antagonists are labelled, the frequent use of Neo-Nazi and confederate flag imagery makes it clear that the group is more of a 'white power supremacist cult' than 'biker gang'. Despite this clearly being a 'white supremacist cult' none of the regular tropes to white supremacy are used other than violence, murder and drugs.Over all this film is terrible to watch but great to know about if you don't go into the film expecting much you won't leave disappointed!

bayardhiler In the 80s and early 90s, there were a number of movies that may not have had the most solid story, but what the they lacked in story they more than made up for in action, all kinds of mindless action that any red blooded American could sink his teeth into. 1991's "Stone Cold" is a perfect example of this; despite not having the best written story or being the best produced film, you still can't help but be entertained. The film follows the story of a rough and tough cop Joe Huff (Brian Bosworth, aka The Boz, former NFL player who tried his hand at acting and while he may not be a great actor, he does do a decent job for the role) who is forced to go undercover in a vicious biker gang known as The Brotherhood, who's motto is "God Forgives, the Brotherhood Doesn't" (a motto that was almost certainly borrowed from the American Outlaw Association or Outlaws MC, their's being "God Forgives, Outlaws Don't). While going undercover, the Boz faces all sorts of dangers, be it from fights, guns, knives, explosions, but above all, from the gang's infamous leader, Chains Chopper, played by the always entertaining Lance Henriksen. Even though this is far from being standard A material, Lance dives into his character, producing one of the best bona fide psychopaths in the history of action cinema and thus making the movie all the more better because of it. You also have William Forsythe in an equally menacing role of Ice, Chains' right hand man and constant bump in the road for the Boz. Then there is the beautiful Arabella Holzbog (sadley, I can't seem to find any info on her) as Nancy, Chains' old lady (biker slang for wife or girlfriend) who ends up falling for Huff, not realizing that he is a cop which leads to tragic results. All in all, if you're a guy and in the mood for a man's man movie, filled with plenty of action and hot naked women, plus some really nice motorcycles, then "Stone Cold" would be a great way to spend some time on Sat night. Also starring Sam McMurray and Richard Gant. 8 out of 10. PS Although this is more of a man's movie, women may get some enjoyment out of seeing Bosworth without a shirt and, in one scene, wearing nothing but a speedo. Hint guys, this a good way to sell this to your wife or girlfriend for movie night.

FlashCallahan Joe Huff is a tough, go-it-alone cop with a flair for infiltrating dangerous biker gangs.The FBI blackmail Joe into an undercover operation to convict some extremely violent bikers, who are angry at the capture of their leader.....A brilliant early nineties action film, full of what you would expect. An ex football star who was given a chance at being a box office draw, but never hit the big screen again, Henriksen in probably one of his best bad guy roles, naked women, a maniacal Forsythe coming straight from out for justice.And of course, silly explosions, stick in the ass partners, punch ups for no reason, and rock music playing whenever Bosworth mounts a bike.It's not plausible, the story is rotten, but does it give you a lot of bang for your buck. Bosworth can't act for toffee, but his mullet speaks in volumes, stumbling from one set piece to the next, he tries his hardest, but Baxley more than makes up for the leads acting with great set pieces.The film is short, and there is little character study, but this leaves room for more explosions and an ending so over the top, it turns a bad movie into an instant cult.It's a bad movie, but for sheer fun, you can't beat this.

Aaron1375 My summary is not really a compliment at all. Brian Bosworth was not a horrible actor, but was a horrible professional football player. I am surprised that he was not able to get many roles after this one, unless he declined to play villains and secondary characters. He is not star material, he reminds me of Dolph Lundgren, but whereas Dolph seems to recognize that the only roles he is going to get in more big time fare is by not being the lead, my guess is the Boz felt he should be the big cheese in any film he participated in. Still, all the negative stuff aside this movie was not exactly bad. It was enjoyable in places and did provide entertainment as it was very violent and had nudity and all that stuff that were the stuff back in the 80's and early 90's. Brian plays a guy who goes undercover or something to stop these biker dudes who are linked to crimes or something to that effect. The plot is not really important in a film such as this, you watch these films for the action and shoot outs and the boobs and this movie offers plenty. Still, it may have been better had they put someone bigger in the starring role and perhaps even got someone better for the villain role too. Lance Henrickson is a good actor, just did not have the look of a biker leader that he played here.
