Cold Harvest

Gary Daniels (who is he?) is stunning as a martial arts kung fu/cowboy gunslinger/bounty hunter who becomes the hero saving the wife of his killed brother. The action - shootouts and fight scenes are incredible though not original. The acting sucks big time but that's not the point. This is one hell of a roller coaster ride. Enjoy.

The script for "Cold Harvest" is anything but inspired. We've seen the post-holocaust setting many times before, we've seen the same kind of creeps this movie has in other movies, and the dialogue is unexceptional. (And what does that title mean? It's never explained.) Other faults the movie has includes Gary Daniels. In this movie and in others of his I've seen, he simply can't act.

Still, there is still some pleasure to be found in the movie. Although this was clearly a very low budget movie, it's clear that the production team squeezed every penny out of their limited funds. The photography and lighting is very good. The movie does go by at a fairly brisk pace. And Bryan Genesse and Tony Caprari make amusing and colorful villains. But what's really good are the action sequences. I've seen other movies directed by Isaac Florentine, and I can tell you that he sure knows how to make exciting action sequences, including the ones in this movie. If you're a B movie fan, you'll probably find enough good stuff in this movie to make it worth your time.

Well, the acting is f.. really gay, they should have dubbed his accent or got him to speak american cause it just didn't cut it for the hard man that daniels was tryin to portray, plus it was another post apocalyptic flick and we all know how good they all r.*sigh's* the two mains boys Daniels And Genesse are both amazing fighters and the fight scenes in this film show this awesomely at times especially the last fight between the two of them.i would advise u to rent this if there was nothin new to rent and u are in the mood for martial arts, cause it is for only these reasons that it is worth renting, other wise just leave it till another day. i am really hoping both of these guys get roles on a gd tv series or a high budget movie release cause they could do any martials arts film justice as long as the story ain't poo and the other actors in the film can actually act, a good director would also be good, but we can only pray that john woo be the man cause that would be really amazing. anyways u may aswell rent this cos u'll probly go and waste u'r money on another b-movie any way, think bout it, good luck.

What do you get when you mix Hong Kong-inspired fights and stunts, John Woo-type shootouts, spaghetti Western-like faceoffs and post-apocalyptic settings ala Albert Pyun? You get "Cold Harvest", except that this ambitious mix is not as interesting as it sounds. Gary Daniels is fun to watch, especially in the fight scenes, and Barbara Crampton does a surprisingly good job in her role, but why do they have the main villain, who turns out to be an awesome fighter, fight only once (at the end), and kill people with his guns throughout the rest of the movie? If you're a fan of Gary Daniels (and I'm slowly becoming one myself) check out "Bloodmoon" first, as it has more fights and a fantastic villain (Darren Shahlavi). (**)

This movie is half western, half kung fu movie. And it takes place in the future! But the results are pretty good. The story moves at a fast pace. Gary Daniels makes a very cool hero in this one! The villan could have been better though. Nice mix of fighting and shootouts. One of Gary Daniels' best movies!
