Gladiator Cop

Yeah, no doubt it's weirdest movie I've ever seen. Combined from archive footage of his predecessor, it's unique, totally dumb and senseless. It may be interesting only to lovers of B-grade underground fighting, but that's it. CGA are lame, acting is gone, James Hong is pointless. There is only one good thing in this stinker - music. It's better than whole movie itself. I'm not a big fan of b-movies, but I liked Swordsman (1993), the predecessor. However this one, is shame for cinema. Oh, yeah... There one scene, in which Astrid Falconi shows her muscles, while making love to some guy. That's was only thing that was interesting. The production hadn't enough money to show her breasts, which is too bad. Good luck for next time.

He is good with a sword and has weird dreams but is he Alexander The Great? The sword is missing again and Barrett is unofficially on the case. But this time he may be in over his head. A reincarnated general he executed has taken his partner prisoner. Can he get his hands on the sword in time to save them both? The sword fights are excellent. Lamas as always is at his best. Nick Pasco's character is killed in the first movie and yet somehow turns up again here without explanation. My gut feeling is that this was one movie edited into two. But they are both so good. Who cares?

I don't think I've ever seen a Lorenzo Lamas movie, and judging from this effort I haven't missed much. Man, that guy loves his hair. He plays a cop with unexplained psychic powers who can envisage murder victims deaths by touching their corpses. It seems he's the reincarnation of Alexander the Great, whose mighty sword has been stolen by a dastardly museum proprietor. The dastardly museum proprietor is using it to help him win bets on illegal fights – as you do.

The story holds together about as well as a bubble in a hurricane – and has about as much substance. Apparently it's made up largely from the footage left over from an earlier Lamas movie so it's clear the makers weren't fired by a desire to make a lasting contribution to cinema's fine heritage. No sir, these guys were out to make a quick buck. Characters appear and disappear without explanation and do stupid things for no reason. One of them even sleeps with Lamas and his hair.

If you're looking for an entertaining fighting movie, avoid this one at all costs. Do you want to see a movie that's so bad that it becomes an unintentional comedy? Then you also should avoid this one, because it's so utterly bad that it's not even funny. The movie's plot circles around illegal, underground street-arena fights where the fighters use many kinds of brutal weapons and kill each other. Sound familiar? This has been done many times, but never as bad as this. Most of the fighters are really unfit and shabby people, and there aren't much that reminds me of true martial arts skills. The story makes no sense, and is just full of plot holes. I just don't get why Lorenzo Lamas stars in this. He's not exactly the best action star around, but this was a disaster even by his standards.

Lorenzo at his best! Emotion, passion, drama, one of the biggest action flicks of the year , even with a small budget, but Lorenzo is enough and steals the show. G R E A T
