Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

Iseerphia All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

briefcase119 Well, yes there were a lot of bangs, blasts, and flashbacks. But since it was up against the State of the Union address, it gets plus points for being more in touch with reality. Scheider appeared infrequently in the film, telegraphing in his performance from wherever he was mentally. He has done some really incredible films in the past... its sad to see him waste his time on this one. The female lead was easy on the eyes, and probably gave the most from her reserves of acting juice. The hunk/hero had less emotion than the beer bottle I was looking at him through. I watched it because it was the least objectionable thing on TV for that time slot, and thats not saying much.

rps-2 This is not only a bad movie, it is yet another scary symptom of a sick society being pandered to by an exploitive and irresponsible film industry. The plot is idiotic. As happens again and again, it is based on corrupt, all powerful government. There is endless gun play (in which nobody ever seems to hit anything)and repeated gore. There is a totally gratuitous lesbian sex scene which has absolutely no bearing on the plot. If things aren't being riddled with bullets or pushed out of windows, they're blown up in fiery explosions. Why are the Brits able to do some real nail-biters without resorting to this sort of blam-blam sensationalism. And the Americans wonder why they have a firearms problem... I am a great believer that you get what you pay for in bargain bin movies at Walmart. But I keep hoping. I paid a buck fifty for this one and would consider myself ripped off except that by replacing the erase tab, I can re-use the tape. Almost anything I record on it will be better than this vulgar, violent cinematic vomit!

romeo_romes Was I the only one who saw this pile that noticed that the ending "borrowed" several shots from the ending of The Long Kiss Goodnight by Renny Harlin? Just as Imposter borrowed several effects shots from several other sci-fi movies.Overall, the acting was flat and the action was staged poorly. Scheider and Dina Meyer are better than this stuff, but they have to eat I guess. Plot was not too bad, but very familiar. If there is nothing else on, like Court.tv or commercials, this movie may be worth watching.Overall, I give it 3 out of 10.Maybe Dina Meyer should give Verhoeven a call again.

rafikrazzouk The story line might be interesting. But the acting is pretty awful. Not worth the renting money. It's surprising to see Roy Sheider in such an average movie. He's probably the only reason people would rent this movie. This movie is below average, I rated it 4 out of 10.
