Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Prismark10 Wesley Snipes is a deranged former army personnel and CIA agent in rehab who suffered the loss of his best friend in a mission in Bosnia. He dates his late friend's sister, who is a detective. Snipes becomes mixed up in a plot dealing with an experimental truth serum and is abducted and injected by the serum which gives him flashbacks to his Bosnian mission and cannot distinguish from reality while his girlfriend needs to find the antidote.The film has a moderate budget and made for a cinema release but is rather absurd and flawed even for an action thriller. Snipes has charisma but looks like a man whose future is heading for straight to DVD films.
gridoon2018 Wesley Snipes fans expecting a fightfest will probably be disappointed with "Unstoppable" / "Nine Lives", since the martial arts quotient is very limited. But those who prefer their action films to be driven by their stories and have a touch of originality in them will probably like this more. The originality comes mostly in the form of the hallucinogenic effects of the drug that Snipes gets injected with, and the ways director David Carson merges illusions with reality. Snipes is believably haunted by his war memories, just as he is believably disoriented by the drug; an action star like, say, Steven Seagal, would hardly be able to handle this role. Playing a police detective who is also Snipes' girlfriend, Jacqueline Obradors is uncompromisingly tough, foul-mouthed and occasionally even unpleasant, and she handles it all with conviction. And Kim Coates always makes a dependable villain. The film also contains one of the funniest lines I've heard in a long time, precisely because it's so unexpected: "Hey, have you seen my pony?" (**1/2)
Batkid1 Yeah, so that was a lame above criticism, but it doesn't matter because this movie hits the pits pretty hard. I could honestly care less if it was low-budget or not and/or original. All I wanted was a decent Action flick and I was disappointed once again by Snipes's choices in film ( the last flick he was in was the DTV "The Marksman" ). He's never been that great throughout his career, but he has every once in awhile he's had a pretty, good leading/ supporting role and this was, unfortunately, one of his duds. Anyway, this movie started getting campy, then got corny, then hit the mediocre level to where it was boring and just too stupid for words. I then turned it off and have USA network to thank for letting me watch it free on cable so I can save my money.
sailortash138 Budget: est $15million. $14.9 million probably went to Wesley Snipes. The worst special effects, acting and plot all thrown together and put in a decent DVD cover. Guns being loaded with empty clips, dodgy effects, predictable scenes (we placed bets on what would happen in that scene. It was a good days betting). Wesley Snipes should be groaning at even having his name associated with this film. And the people who directed/wrote/starred and had basically anything to do with it should never be allowed near a movie set again!I wouldn't recommend to any to pay decent money for this film, even on DVD. Go to the supermarket and spend that $5 on chocolate or chips, they will entertain you longer!
