Avis à la une
My summary is not much of a compliment as the Boz as he was known as back in the day was a horrible NFL player and an over hyped college one. The Boz as about attitude and an image and college football recognized this by giving the Butckus award to Alabama linebacker Cornelius Bennett instead. That being said, Brian was not a horrible actor, kind of a Dolph Lundgren type where you put him in the right position and he will succeed. I am afraid his football career may have helped him get into Hollywood; however, being run over by Bo Jackson is an image that hurt his chances of becoming a sustainable star. This film has over the top action, violence and sparse nudity here and there and it failed during a time this type of movie should have done well.
The story, dude is a cop who is on suspension and he stops a grocery store robbery that involves like four guys and automatic weapons. Sure, guys with artillery like that hit the local supermarket for the big score! Well he is soon recruited to infiltrate a biker gang and take it down as they are out there killing priests for no real reason. There are big deals going down and stuff. Look, it is a brainless action film, best not to dwell on the plot and let the explosions make you say, radical!
As I said, Brian Bosworth did alright here, they did not give him too much to do as he mainly walks toughly here and there. Lance Henrickson on the other hand seems miscast as the leader of a biker gang. Why not someone with some size so you can have a decent fight at the end as poor Lance puts up a worse fight in this than the Joker gave Batman in the first Batman movie. Lance looks way more at home in the priest costume at the end!
So lots of explosions, lots of strutting around like one owns the place, more explosions, some boobies and even more explosions. Seriously, I do not think a motorcycle explodes upon impact in a fireball the size of some sort of C4 explosion. Still, that is what makes the movie sort of fun, makes it a bad movie that is sort of good at the same time. This movie failed at the box office, but a few changes and I think it could have done good, I bet if Canon had made this film it would have turned a profit as this is the type of film that was their signature. I do not really see it as an MGM film, even though that is who made it. So, turn off your brain and give it a view, it may be bad, but it is not boring!

Sometimes, just sometimes you see a film that rocks your world. A film that normally you wouldn't even pick off the shelf unless someone told you about it. Stone Cold is that film.
Starring man of the day Brian 'the Boz' Bosworth this low budget action vehicle is one of the most fun actioners that I have ever seen. What's right with it? In terms of your normal studio producer films very little. The acting is poor, the script dreadful, continuity (especially the hysterically bad bike chase) is just atrocious and that's just the opening few scenes.
But this film hits where it needed to. The action. The set pieces are a by numbers low budget master class, how to make the most out of very, very little. Henrikson is a superb villain and Bosworth makes the most of his limited abilities to chew the scenery whenever it gets into his way.
As I said not a perfect film but pretty damn perfect nights entertainment.

Whilst the plot is very formulaic, Stone Cold is still really good fun. Brian Bosworth gives a really good lead performance and proves he is a very capable action star. Lance Henriksen is great as the villain. Its well paced and builds effectively to a satisfying, over the top and action packed third act. It's well filmed and Craig R. Baxley's direction is good. The music by Sylvester Levay is also good.

You haven't seen this much male shirtlessness in a film since Planet of the Apes (1968). Boz struts his bare torso around and you know that was the reason the film was made. That and the thick, beefy one-liners delivered with a total absence of any emotion whatsoever.
Watching this historical nugget of 1991-era sensibilities was like hopping into the Wayback machine set for "LAME", though somehow it's entertaining. Perhaps that is the central mystery of the film: How can something so horrible be so AWESOME?!
Boz's hair defies both logic and taste and manages to evoke the diametrically opposed forces in early 1990's hairstyles: Thick product vs. rockin' windswept "do". Black roots juxtaposed with platinum blonde tresses hanging like a mudflap down his beefy neck while the top and sides are all "bidness" crewcut as evidenced by his ability to infiltrate both the Salsa club and the greasy biker compound.
Rent this movie and watch in rapt horror/delight as "The Boz" tears a searing hole into your heart!

I just saw this in a retro showing, and it's really one of those films that you shouldn't enjoy. It came out at the tailend of the muscles action era which was at its height in the 80s.
We don't need to bother about the storyline. Our badass hero has not any acting skills and is out to bring down a biker gang from hell. Lots of explosions, lots of female exploitation and sexism, bad one liners and terrible dress sense, yet it's so much fun. It's so wrong but you can't help but go along for the ride.
As a throw back, it's fun and downright silly escapism. Granted I was finding the sexism too much at times, but apart from that it's a fun night's viewing. Give it a whirl.

- AnecdotesThe role of Joe Huff was originally offered to Arnold Schwarzenegger, but the studio couldn't afford to pay his $20 million fee.
- GaffesNear the beginning, the bikers are shooting beer cans from each others shoulders. The crowd of bikers is gathered directly behind the guy with the can on his shoulders while the other biker shoots at it at such an angle that the crowd should have been hit.
