I was not expecting much, I knew it would be cheesy and that it was a movie not to be taken seriously. However, I am not entirely sure what to make of Cyborg Cop. The acting I didn't think was too bad, I like John Rhys Davies and he is good value as the villain. Rufus Swart is also fun, and while over-the-top at times David Bradley's performance is hardly bland either. The story is derivative and holds few surprises but I never found it dull really, and the soundtrack is decent. However, Alonna Shaw is rather annoying, and the editing especially in the action sequences, of which I have seen worse but generally unexciting, is choppy. The script is uneven to me, Kessel has some fun lines but a lot of it verges on unintentionally cheesy, the ending is stupid to say the least and the characters are rather stock with not much done with the titular character to make him interesting. In conclusion, I don't consider it a great movie but I can think of much worse, if anything I'm very neutral on Cyborg Cop. 5/10 Bethany Cox

Looking at the title I thought that it would be okay. Sadly it failed a bit and the only reason is that it looks cheaply done and the effects used, if we can say effects, are laughable. The cyborg itself just looked ridiculous. Easy to spot that it just was a rubber suit. And just look at his feet, also a rubber shoe. It was also Rufus Swart last role in the business here as a cyborg just coming from the gem Dust Devil (1992).

Coming from Raiders Of The Lost Ark (1981) John Rhys-Davies was casted in low budgets just before his second breakthrough in The Lord Of The Rings (2001). I have to say that the acting of all was mediocre but was surprised that it contained a few nudity shots, one gratuitous by slaves working in a fabric topless. Unbelievable. The other nudity came from Alonna Shaw here as Cathy. She never made it into the business, this also being her last flick before she appeared in two episodes in two series.

The only effect worth noticing is the replacement of a real arm into a cyborg arm. And here and there there are a few nasty shots like a slashing and the cyborg smashing his fist through a head.

Jack Ryan, the main lead was played by David Bradley who became notorious after his role in American Ninja. He came back for the main lead in Cyborg Cop 2 (1994) but also failed after wards and stopped in 1997. Sam Firstenberg, the director also came from the American Ninja flicks and tried to pick in on the Cyborg success and the Terminator flicks.

It do has a kind of Robocop (1987) feeling but as I told before. It has a cheap look. Worth watching for a few shots and scenes but only for the B-flick fans.

My friends make fun of me because I like movies just like this one. It's bad and I'm talkin' realy bad. The type of movie that only gets shown late at night on cable. The basic premise is that a cop gets a call from his brother and he goes to help him. He gets there and lots of fights take place. Without saying the ending (do I even have to) that is pretty much the whole film. I really like John Rhyes-Davie, so this film is not a total waste. Alright maybe it is, but its fun to watch. I wonder if Davies even admits to being in this movie? I wouldn't. Even after all that I still like this movie. It's fun because it is so formulaic that every single scene can be determined before it happens. This movie should only be watched by people who like cheezy movies and the five or six hardcore John Rhyse-Davis fans from around the world. All others stay away!!!!!

this was the worst movie I've ever seen. The acting was absolutely pathetic, let alone the overall directing and producing. Every category of the film, (eg. editing, filming techniques etc)failed dismally and for anyone to rate this film more than a two, makes me wonder what the world is coming to. The attempts at humour were vastly unsuccessful, which in turn created an extremely awkward viewing experience. The only things worth laughing at were the sets and the homo-erotic subtext which I must admit, contributed a major part in scoring this movie 1/10. A lack of money is not an excuse for appalling aesthetics, acting and producing. The worst movie I've ever seen! awkward, boring and painful...no...excruciating.

David Bradley stars as Jack Ryan, a kickboxing special agent who travels to some third world country to save his Rambo-like brother from a mad scientist trying to create an army of robots, helping him is a female reporter. David Bradley is about as good as he ever gets and the movie has some decent special effects and some fun action sequences which make the movie modestly watchable. However this movie lacks the crisp action of Bradley's best effort Hard Justice and the intriguing plot angles of Total Reality and instead this movie works as one of Bradley's better movies. Though it's only for genre fans. John Rhys Davies makes a great cheeseball villain and Double Impact's Alonna Shaw is easy on the eyes and frankly that's all I needed to get me over the film's mindless premise and routine script.

* * out of 4-(Fair)

Two brothers are both in the DEA. One of them goes missing on a mission, and the other goes searching for him. This takes him on a crash course with our strange Villain(Rhys-Davies, whose weight in this must be from chewing scenery, and his accent is literally *all over the place*... I believe he manages to hit all the major continents over the course of this... ah, xenophobia, you've given an easy way out for so many lousy writers who couldn't think of a way to make their "bad guy" despicable), and he'll meet several racist stereotypes of Jamaicans and a bitch reporter(who will bare her breasts and the uppermost bit of her ass in a moderate sex scene before the end of this), and the latter two will offer up terrible comic relief. Oh, and there's an irritating kid, neither natural nor cute. He is a pitiful actor, but then again, *everyone* in this is. The delivery of exposition is obvious. There are several Rambo-style shootouts and physical fights. This is not well-done, but it *is* hilarious. We have a lab that clearly uses TOS "generic beeping" noises, shotguns that sound like a Desert Eagle, and ridiculously ill-thought out "solutions" in the climax. And yes, cyborgs(and at one point, two of them go up against each other), with Freddy Krueger-glove finger-claws. RoboCop? Well, not the exact same story, and infinitely less interesting. Oh, and how do you prolong a man-on-bot battle? You have it throw him into stuff instead of finishing him off, of course. There are a few hot chicks, a little bloody, gory violence and strong language in this. I recommend this to people looking to laugh their ass off. 2/10

This film begins with a DEA agent named "Jack Ryan" (David Bradley) and his brother "Phillip Ryan" (Todd Jensen) cornering a suspect in an abandoned building where he has taken a young woman as a hostage. Although warned by his brother to wait for a SWAT team in accordance with police protocol Jack decides to act immediately and shoots and kills the man instead. It then turns out that this particular person was the son of a very prominent newspaper owner and as a result the resulting bad press leaves a black mark on Jack's record which causes him to resign from the DEA. But rather than simply living a peaceful life afterward Jack gets a package from Phillip telling him that he is in trouble on the Caribbean island of St. Keith and needs his help. What Jack doesn't realize is that Phillip has been captured and a rich drug lord by the name of "Kessel" (John Rhys-Davies) has had him turned into a cyborg who will obey his every command. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that although it had an interesting plot and plenty of pyrotechnics the action scenes seemed too artificial and at times the acting was equally insufficient. That's not to say that this film was necessarily bad but it definitely needed a bit more polish and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Slightly below average.

David Bradley stars as Jack Ryan (Once again I assume no relation to Harrison Ford or Alec Baldwin in Hunt For Red October or Patriot Games)an ex-cop who becomes a one man army when he finds that an evil mad scientist Kessel(John Rhys Davies) has turned his brother into a robot, along the way Ryan is aided by Kathy (Double Impact's Alonna Shaw) who helps him find out what happens in this testosterone driven thriller. David Bradley gets about as good as he ever gets in this science fiction thriller which features enough flair in the action to make this a rather pleasing effort to the action fan. Anyone however looking for something more won't find it here. Of course nobody would go in expecting much from a David Bradley movie anyway.

2.5/5 Matt Bronson

CYBORG COP is an entertaining low-rent beat 'em up with a sci-fi twist. It's a classic piece of B-movie fare, featuring all the usual elements we've come to expect (and love) from our cult films: a muscled, posturing hero (David Bradley), a slumming British actor playing the villain (John Rhys-Davies, who should know better), locations standing in for elsewhere (here, South Africa is meant to be the Caribbean), awful effects (the robot suits are something else), plentiful action, a gratuitous sex scene (featuring DOUBLE IMPACT's pneumatic starlet, Alonna Shaw) and terrible script.

The story has hints of ROBOCOP but those expecting to see a robot dishing out justice on the streets, as the title would imply, are in for disappointment: the cyborg cop of the title is a supporting character who never gets to go out on the beat. Instead, this is a standard revenge format, with the lead character (Jack Ryan, not the Tom Clancy one) tracking the villain to his lair to rescue his kidnapped sibling. Bradley's acting is pants, but he gets to show off his martial arts skills in a series of low budgeted but highly enjoyable action scenes which involve plentiful destruction and mayhem.

The movie has a decent director in the form of Sam Firstenberg, whose REVENGE OF THE NINJA is still my favourite ninja movie; CYBORG COP doesn't reach those highs, but it is a lot of fun. The combination of cheesy effects, cheesier one-liners, shoehorned-in nudity and diabolical acting (Rhys-Davies repeatedly slips into a broad Yorkshire accent for some reason) make this a heady brew that cult fans will find difficult to turn down!

I miss the 90s I really do, and I remember this film profoundly when I was a kid especially the sex scene, kidding . Now, let's get serious and cut to the chase. Cyborg cop is one of those low-budget films that were inspired by the popularity of "Terminator 2". Of course, this is not your typical "Terminator" movie, but still it has some entertainment for home video. This is also one of the first rare movies that includes hard core "Commando" like action, cyborgs and martial arts. And I think that makes this movie pretty cool. Our leading hero is Jack Ryan (typical name for all American movie hero from low budget films, you know, the usual names are John, Jack, Bill, Ray, James, Jim, Mason, Matrix you know, the cool, strong sounding names), the DEA agent. He received a message from his brother who disappeared in action somewhere in Caribbean islands and of course, he convinced (through violence) his boss to go there and investigate what happened with his brother Phillip. And over there, he finds out that there's more than some drug traffic, like more action scenes, and meeting a sexy reporter Kate, and of course a secret laboratory for cyborgs. And now, it's on you already know how this kind of movies end. Jack is played by David Bradley (best known for American Ninja sequels and American Samurai), a martial artist and actor who well, as you can see, acting his not his tougher side, but he gave us an interesting fighting scenes. But the character was interestingly written, with his "I don't give a damn" attitude, leather jackets and his waist bag, which he also has in the sequel. As a main villain, we have John Rhys Davies wait a minute He is a good actor, if not the best actor in the entire film, I never realized how some of good actors end up in a low budget, crappy films. But, John did several of them, so I think he was OK with that, he is the main, rich scientist called Kessler who created cyborg. He did pretty well in the film, but on occasions, he looked like some cliché, silly villain, with white suit and walking cane, with ridiculous accent. The leading lady Kate is played by Alonna Shaw. Ohhhh, that sexiness the lovely blonde of the early 90s love that, you remember her perhaps from Double Impact (1991), she was here just to look hot and have a sex scene with Jack, because her acting is also not that good. Jack's brother Philip is played by Todd Jensen, yet another low budget actor, I have seen him so many low budget films. And, there is a supporting villain, a cyborg named well, just cyborg, really menacing prototype who makes an interesting, mad faces, the dude looks funny and his, I mean, the "cyborg outfit", masked leg and arm, that looks like an expensive Halloween costume. Oh and I love those funny explosive, remote control airplanes and Jamaicans cheering for a good fight when Jack is taking over the bar Oh, and a fact that cyborgs were built by a German scientist now that was extremely funny and really unusual cliché.

I bought this on DVD for £1 after me and a friend of mine were having a season of watching really lame films, and I have to say, this is very possibly the most unintentionally funny film I have ever seen in my whole life. I don't know what the hell Sam Firstenberg was smoking when he made it, but whatever it was seems to have totally affected his ability to shout "Cut!" as there are so many scenes that left me wondering why the hell they didn't just go back and refilm them. And the editing is atrociously bad. Look carefully during the scene where David Bradley's character is assaulting the house on his motorbike. He jumps off the bike, and shoots twice at a couple of guys, one on the roof, and one on a balcony. Count them, he fires two shots. So then why, inexplicably, does a third man roll down the stairs immediately after, clearly having been shot? It was this kind of total sloppiness that made the film so enjoyable, yet baffling, as they obviously had a decent enough size budget to hire helicopters and blow the hell out of everything, yet not enough to edit the damn thing right...

Other unintentionally comic moments are: "Quincy" the Cyborg (Yes, Quincy...) trying to smash through the door in the morgue but nearly knocking himself out as only the top half of the door crumples (my favourite bit. Watch it in slo-mo...).

Quincy getting electrocuted and walking into a wall.

Quincy's hand-knife-glove-fingers.

Quincy, the most advanced robot cyborg in the world deciding the best way to kill the president during the demonstration is to dive through the windscreen headfirst and catch fire.

David Bradley doing a spinning kick and kicking no-one in the face in the fight outside the bar.

David Bradley disarming a guard, then spinning round on the spot for no reason before shooting him.

David Bradley's lame attempts to distract the police officers in the car before he snatches the gun.

David Bradley's Bumbag.

David Bradley.

Todd Jensen's "Philip" cyborg, and his wholly inappropriate cyborg voice. Coupled with a hilarious penchant for repeating words for no reason, such as, John Rhys-Davies: "this is the bank"...

Philip: "BANK"...

Put simply, if you haven't seen this movie, hunt it down. It is utterly hilarious, for all the wrong reasons. 10 out of 10.

Ex-DEA agent Jack (David Bradley, the American Ninja in parts 3 through 5), whom got fired after shooting a nut-job who had taken a hostage, but was the son of a wealthy newspaper mogul, seeks to rescue his brother Phillip also a DEA agent after he gets into deep trouble with evil master-mind, Kessel on a tropical island, unaware that Phillip has since been changed into a cyborg programmed to kill.

Make no bones about it, this movie is brain-dead,moronic B-movie fare through and through, but at the same time I found it to be fairly entertaining, especially while inebriated with like-minded friends. Do some bits fail on their faces? yes. There's a Dukes of Hazzard- type chase sequence that's utterly horrible (not in the good way) & the soundtrack is almost as horrid. Yet for this most part I was amused. One note: If you don't have a penchant for bad B-action movies, steer clear of this one.

Eye Candy: An unknown actress who plays 'Cindy' & Alonna Shaw both get topless

My Grade: B-

This movie wasn't as bad as I'd expected it to be. The plot: a renegade cop, Jack (David Bradley, great B-action-flick guy) goes into the jungle (in Jamaica I think), to find his lost brother, who has been turned into a cyborg by a charismatic bad guy, Kessel (played by John Rhys-Davies in perhaps one of his best roles ever) - while looking for him, Jack encounters many bad guys whose asses he must kick, and he also scores with some bimbo (Played by Alonna Shaw, who probably is a nice person in real life, but p*ssed me off in the movie)

The Highlight of the movie is the Evil Cyborg, Quincy (played by Rufus Swart, who I don't think said a single word during the entire movie..and it appears to be his last movie too!) - he has this really cool knife-glove he puts on to slash his enemies, looks great!

I won't reveal to much about the movie, go see it! It's brilliant! I laughed my ass of, especially at the end, when Jack fools Kessel..it's brilliantly written and conceived! (or maybe not)

I give this movie 6/10, because it's very entertaining, but still a crap-flick though...the tourist-bag Jack wears throughout the movie looked so silly, maybe that's why the bad guys aren't afraid of him, because he looks like a total wussy, with a gold belt... John Rhys-Davies has a lot of good lines, and he steals EVERY scene he's in.. the same goes whenever Rufus Swart is in a scene, his foamy rubber "cyborg-legs/arms" looks hilariously cheap!

HEY! LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU!

The score I'm giving this film shouldn't really be taken as a comparison to - what most people would call - 'good movies.' If you go by my rating alone then it looks like I'm saying that 'Cyborg Cop' is up there with the best of them. And it isn't. It's NOT a good movie. It's terrible. However, sometimes a film is so bad it sort of goes all the way round the houses and backs into the 'good' category. Actually, I'll call this film 'entertaining' rather than 'good.'

I suppose it's a 'B-movie,' but it's probably more a 'C' or 'D' movie. It doesn't have any actors you'll recognise (unless you know what the dwarf, Gimli, from 'Lord of the Rings' looks like without make-up). The script is awful. The special effects look like the runner-up of your local Halloween fancy dress parade and the story doesn't really hold up under scrutiny. Yet, I can't help but enjoy every daft minute of it.

Two cops quit the force because, er, reasons that don't really make that much sense and are not that important in relation to the rest of the story. One brother then decides to adopt a child and then go on some sort of assassination mission in a random South American island (or something - again, realism has already been thrown out the window). Unfortunately, he gets more than he bargained for after a 'faux Predator-style' action scene against an army of useless henchmen, when he's captured by the villain, played by John Rhys Davis (alternating between his natural Welsh accent and a Yorkshire on, I think) and turned into a cyborg soldier (not 'cop' interestingly enough). Now it's up to his other brother to save him.

I know 'Cyborg Cop' was made in the nineties, but somehow it feels like it belongs in the eighties. It's a total mess and, if you're not looking for a sci-fi/action movie that's in any way serious/believable then you should find this very entertaining. It's definitely up there with the 'best' 'so-bad-they're-good' types of films. I just hope the (numerous!) sequels live up to just how (awfully!) good this one is.

Well if your like me and you love these cheap martial arts/Sci-fi films made in the mid 90's when the Karate film genre was big then this is no exception. David Bradley (king of TV movies) is the hero in this one and he has to try and rescue his brother from, believe it or not none other than John Rhys-Davies. His accent is very bad i'm not sure if its a poor british accent or an African one. The highlight of the film is that Bradley wears a massive black leather Bum Bag (or fanny Pack) throughout the film and never takes it off even when hes fighting! He co ordinates this fine piece of clothing with a gold belt. The fighting isn't too bad and the action is ok. I would recommend buying it for a bit of fun.

On a mission to watch vintage b-movie action flicks with the more notable names, I've finally arrived at 'Cyborg Cop' with David Bradley. He only made a handful of flicks and then disappeared - retired perhaps - but this seemed like a good place to start with him. It's got a brand of cheesy action, explosions, bad acting & silly story that feels like it could be a Cannon Films product, but it's not.

Brothers Jack (Bradley) & Phillip (Todd Jensen) work for the DEA, but taking down a drugged wacko sees Jack quit the force under pressure. When Phil is sent on a foreign mission that turns out to be an ambush, Jack goes to save him. Coming face to face with cyborg killers - his brother now one of them (hence the title) - and Kessel (John Rhys Davies). The drug peddling, cyborg creating government overthrowing mastermind.

Spinning newspapers fill in details. A young boy being adopted to give feels. More than a few stuntmen eating dirt. Plus hokey special effects all within the first 20 minutes. A bossy reporter (Alona Shaw) becomes the hero's obvious romance later on supplying boobs. Bradley gets into fisticuffs, gun battles. Davies goes to the hilt with his dialog. A bad musical score fills the air as does a dose of generic corrupt cops on the way to a bum ending.

As if I haven't already spelled it out, 'Cyborg Cop' isn't a good flick but it's fun if you're here for the right reasons. Cheap with no original bone in it's body, I laughed more than once. Veteran b-movie director Sam Firstenberg makes this flick flow better than it rightfully should and Bradley & Davies do their part to make this a piece of b-movie junk food.

Before anyone jumps to any conclusions, this movie genuinely needs to be seen to be believed! This film blends the pre 2016 cinematic penchant for macho action movie heroes and beautiful blondes with the dystopian prophecies of The Fent.

A simple story of a brother, lost like a Copland DVD, being turned into a cyborg by a cocaine kingpin/mad scientist, tracked down to a "stable as a 3 legged milk school" Latin American jungle by his DEA agent brother.

Full of action, suspense, plot twists, sunglasses, witty remarks and more man points than putting up a flatpacked shelf. Never have I laughed more.

You know you're in for A Time when even the short opening scene, and exposition of the first few minutes, raise a quizzical eyebrow. If the Carmichael family were that famous, how would Jack not know who he was dealing with? Why should brother Phillip also get in trouble for what Jack did? What military or paramilitary is executing missions in the Caribbean in the 1990s? Clearly screenwriter Greg Latter, director Sam "Electric Boogaloo" Firstenberg, and producer Danny Lerner weren't too concerned about plot and just hammered out a general scenario to facilitate the action, then loosely filled in the details otherwise. That's fine, I guess. In fairness, most anyone coming across a feature like this should already know very well what they're in for, anyway, and we can see the climax coming from seventy-five minutes away. (Make that ninety-five minutes away, if you first glance at an outside synopsis that summarizes the plot in the mere four sentences that are necessary to do so.)

No, there aren't any surprises in 'Cyborg cop,' unless you count the major supporting role of John Rhys-Davies: gleefully overacting as the villain, and clearly having a great time in the process. But then, everyone in the cast is enjoying themselves, for that matter, including Alonna Shaw, doing her best impression of Daphne Zuniga as Princess Vespa in 'Spaceballs' if the Druish royalty were a reporter, and arguably even more vivacious, with a swifter and shallower arc; and star David Bradley, chewing all the scenery he can as hot-headed but invariably heroic Jack. At least half the dialogue is quite dubious, the scene writing and direction inspire skepticism, and even the music, shifting tone, and voice effects give one pause - yet at the same time, it's readily evident that what the picture lacks in earnestness and careful writing, it makes up for with a nearly free-wheeling joie de vivre and intent to simply have fun. This is a B-movie at best, but it also knows perfectly well what it is, and not only does it not have any illusions otherwise, it also fully embraces that whimsy. The result, despite all reasonable reservations, is a blast!

Bone-headed, with a readily foreseen and forced and contrived romance (a man and a woman appearing on-screen together must always end up entangled, dontcha know), music courtesy of Paul Fishman that's all over the place and joyfully so, over the top action, a cast who knows how ridiculous the conglomeration is: yes, this film is a romp. And despite myself, I really like it. Though it lacks the same level of resources as other titles I'll name momentarily, it readily reminds of select other nonsense that puts outrageous frivolity first and storytelling and film-making judiciousness last. I think of the best 'Friday the 13th' installment, 'Jason X,' and John Carpenter's own 'Electric Boogaloo,' 'Escape from L. A.' I think of Kitamura Ryuhei's bombastic 'Godzilla: Final wars,' irreverent TV movie 'Lake Placid: The final chapter,' and the underappreciated 'Dracula 2000.' For all the outwardly questionable facets that a true-blue critic may lambaste, nothing here is sloppy or accidental. Not the writing, not the direction, and not the acting, and definitely not the effusive stunts, practical effects, fight coordination, and action sequences.

The filming locations are swell, and I appreciate the production design and art direction. Even the costume design, hair, and makeup earn some praise. The nudity and sex scene feel gratuitous, yet also right in line with what fare of this precise nature should provide. The title makes a big show at the outset of being sincere in the worst of ways, and makes a poor first impression for the uninitiated - yet once one recognizes the irreverence, 'Cyborg cop' actually earns some welcome laughs with some of the humor it deploys. And you know what, for all the absurdity, there are some terrific ideas here in various odds and ends. (Or at least delightfully amusing ideas; remember Wilford Brimley in 'Hard target?') A hard-hitting, thrilling action extravaganza can be rewarding, and so can an impactful drama, but the world also needs the pure lark that wishes only to provide an exuberant cinematic experience. And even second-, third-, or fourth-tier endeavors like this, that astonish by nabbing one highly visible star, is exactly that. It's hardly something that demands viewership, and I can understand that it won't appeal to all comers. Yet I sat to watch with low expectations, and I'm all so pleased with how entertaining I find this feature to be. Don't go out of your way for 'Cyborg cop,' but if you're open to the style it adopts and have the chance to watch, in my opinion this is well worth checking out.
