The Minion

This is without a doubt one of the worst movies EVER, I emphasize, EVER made. What´s worse, my old hero Dolph is in it and he´s starring it. Jesus... The story is actually quite good but the way it´s carried out made even my body hurt. The fighting scenes for starters are about as well choreographed as a fight between two drunks slugging it out in the gutter. The actors, except for Dolph who kinda sucks also, perform so badly you can´t help but wonder if their reason for being there is that they´re all friends of the director, who by the way must have been absent most, if not all, of the time. This is §12 million spent in an unimaginable way, because by the look of the effects and scenery, the cost can´t be a cent above §1000.

Dolph Lundgren stars as a templar who comes to New York when a key that unlocks the anti-Christ is found by an archaeologist, of course the demon is only a couple miles behind Dolph and isn't killed so easily as he transfers from body to body. (Like Fallen without the suspense) Of course Lundgren is out of his element and the movie is completely unwatchable. I admit to being a fan of Dolph Lundgren, like Steven Seagal and Jean-Claude Van Damme, I try to watch his movies whenever they're on TV. I caught The Minion and boy was I ever disappointed. This movie is utterly terrible. With action sequences so poorly staged and badly edited you can barely make coherent sense in the fight arena. Worst of all is Lundgren's woefully unconvincing perf as a tough guy priest (!) all of this made worse that the movie is such a rip off of Fallen (Which was good) and End Of Days (Which was bad but better than this) overall this movie is the worst movie I've seen from Dolph Lundgren. It literally has nothing to recommend it. It's awful and it's the lowest point in Lundgren's career. And I saw Cover-Up, The Last Warrior and Masters Of The Universe.

1/2* Out Of 4-(Awful)

The Minion (AKA Fallen Knight) stars Dolph Lundgren as a priest who must keep a key out of the hands of a demon who is trying to set the antichrist free.

This is not a movie...It consists of one sided fights (That are poor) And bad acting that will make anybody groan. The Templars should keep this movie from an audience.....Because this groan inducing bore will have you wishing the end of the world would happen just you could get out of this stinkbomb. What was Dolph thinking?

* (Out of four)

Not a terrible movie but time has not been kind to this film. It's way past it's sell by date. If you want a "Y2K" "World's going to end" movie from this era watch "End of Days" with Arnie!

That's not one of Arnie's but, is much better than this. Dolph completists can watch it but, it's slow and a hard watch.

This seem to be the beginning of Dolph's "Cable movie" era. These cheap Canadian made for TV movies that frankly seem beneath him (at this time in his career) But, everyone has bills to pay I guess!

Dolph is currently working on a documentary about his life so it will interesting to see why he opted to make some of these choices.

1/5 stars. Avoid.

I've see this movie in a few Christmas horror/thriller movie lists. I'm a big fan of Christmas horror so this movie let me down. Other than a few scenes in the beginning you wouldn't even know it was that time of year. Aside from that I thought it started out interesting then lost me in boredom. An old episode of the A-team is more exciting than this. IDK, maybe I missed something but that movie put me to sleep.
