Hand on heart, then I must admit that I had little expectations, if any at all, to "Cyborg Soldier". I mean, everything here just screams low budget and questionable movie, from storyline to the list of cast talents appearing on the cast list.
The story in "Cyborg Soldier" is about a genetically enhanced person, a cyborg of sorts, who escapes the confines of the research facility where he was created and kept captive. In the outside world he has a run in with a local sheriff and teams up with her to avoid capture by the very same people who created him.
Right, nothing new or overly thrilling about the storyline or plot here. And there most certainly is nothing new to be had here, that haven't already been seen in other similar Sci-Fi inspired movies.
And as for the acting, well let's just say that it has Tiffani Thiessen in a leading role, and that needs no further explanation, you know what I am getting to here. And alongside her was actor Rich Franklin, whom I can't claim to be familiar with at all. Aside from Tiffani Thiessen, then the only familiar faces I saw were Bruce Greenwood and Jim Annan.
It didn't take long before I found my attention directed to the mobile phone and not on the actual events on the screen, because the movie just didn't come off as being interesting or captivating in any sense. And scarily enough, then you don't really have to be paying attention to the screen in order to keep up with the events of the story and how the movie turned out. Yeah, it was that generic and predictable.
The effects, although there isn't an abundance of them in the movie, were actually adequate enough, and they served their purpose well enough. However, it just wasn't particularly impressive or memorable, and definitely wasn't spectacular to really catch your attention.
This wasn't a memorable movie in any sense, and that I have seen it, I can check it off the list and I know that I will not be watching it a second time around.
