Cyborg Soldier

Ouch.

About 5 minutes in, I felt really soon for Bruce Greenwood, who I think of as an actual movie star. I cannot imagine what dirt they had on him to blackmail him into being in this, well, I will call it a "film".

About 6 minutes in, I realized I felt sorry for Tiffany Thiessen, which honestly I did think was possible. Not just for me but for anyone.

Along about 7.5 minutes in, I specifically looked up stuntman Simon Northwood, who was playing an unnamed Commando, just so I could know the name of the stuntman I was feeling sorry for for being in this film.

Then at about 9 minutes, as the escaped cyborg (?) was being confronted by the genial country cop, all that evaporated. Suddenly I was overwhelming sorry simply for myself for watching this much of this film.

Don't be sorry; learn from my mistake.

I am not sure... Is this movie some bad joke or what... Cyborg Soldier who in fact isn't cyborg soldier, only man that pretend that is a cyborg soldier and tries to do some face impressions like Arnold in Terminator? Or this is just some lame "Terminator like" movie? From the beginning you can sense that there will be no mystery, just some pump ride action and shooting. This B grade movie has nothing new to offer, low scenario, my stomach turns upside down when I see its used in this movie, as well as in million others to. Acting... my goodness... is that a good word for describing the actors? They sucked at all levels...

Why is this movie made? If you ask me, I would say "I don't know." Its like million others B ratted movies, nothing innovative, after hour and a half watching you would regret for spending that time useless... But if you wish action without thinking, when you know the ending after 20 minutes, with not so good acting and every move predictable, then this is movie for you!

Because the actors Tiffani Thiessen and Rich Franklin are so good this movie is quite enjoyable. The bad guys are bad enough so you don't like them and I was rooting for the good guys. Bruce Greenwood is always a perfect bad guy or a perfect good guy ! I may watch this once a year but I do watch it again and again.

The movies are a medium by which audiences can view their earliest fears or create new ones which live in our nightmares for the rest of our lives. This film is called " Cyborg Soldier " and is yet another effort to remind us the military is still searching for the ultimate soldier. The formula for said soldier is a repetitive theory of both the military and Mad Sientists who believe Mary Shelly was right. During the Middle Ages, a mad scientist created a creature called the 'Golem.' Benign in it's intent, it was created for good but soon ran amok and destroyed both village and creator. Dr. Simon Hart (Bruce Greenwood) is played by an exceptional actor who plays good guys and bad with equal ease. In this story he is a modern Dr. Frankenstien who with the help of Dr. Tyler Voller (Aaron Abrams) learns that his Cyborg Soldier (Rich Franklin) escapes his confinement. Fearful of what he might do, Hart assembles a crack military team to hunt down Isaac, return him to the lab or destroy him. Before the military team arrives Isaac befriends a police woman who tries to help the soldier recover his memory. The movie itself is interesting if you want to know what the Terminator's beginning were. With lots of dramatic action, physical violence and mysterious mayhem, this film garners enough attention to follow the cyborg back into it's laboratory. Bruce Greenwood makes this film plausible and interesting. ****

Oddly, i enjoyed it. Yes, Tissen isn't Hamilton in any way. Yet, this ex-mma fighter (and ex-math teacher. Well, wow!) somehow proned me to compare his personage with great&awfull T. (Yeah, yeah, cyborg vs terminator. 2 big differences. Not the point.) Yes, there is bit too many citations. Yet, it was fun trying to guess which move from which movie. Even Greenwood's perfomance was acceptable. So, yes, this isn't classic of all times. Yet, this is "company of good friends", "put aside your problems for a time" movie.
