Cyborg Cop: A Guerra do Narcotráfico

David Bradley stars as Jack Ryan, a kickboxing special agent who travels to some third world country to save his Rambo-like brother from a mad scientist trying to create an army of robots, helping him is a female reporter. David Bradley is about as good as he ever gets and the movie has some decent special effects and some fun action sequences which make the movie modestly watchable. However this movie lacks the crisp action of Bradley's best effort Hard Justice and the intriguing plot angles of Total Reality and instead this movie works as one of Bradley's better movies. Though it's only for genre fans. John Rhys Davies makes a great cheeseball villain and Double Impact's Alonna Shaw is easy on the eyes and frankly that's all I needed to get me over the film's mindless premise and routine script.

* * out of 4-(Fair)

This film begins with a DEA agent named "Jack Ryan" (David Bradley) and his brother "Phillip Ryan" (Todd Jensen) cornering a suspect in an abandoned building where he has taken a young woman as a hostage. Although warned by his brother to wait for a SWAT team in accordance with police protocol Jack decides to act immediately and shoots and kills the man instead. It then turns out that this particular person was the son of a very prominent newspaper owner and as a result the resulting bad press leaves a black mark on Jack's record which causes him to resign from the DEA. But rather than simply living a peaceful life afterward Jack gets a package from Phillip telling him that he is in trouble on the Caribbean island of St. Keith and needs his help. What Jack doesn't realize is that Phillip has been captured and a rich drug lord by the name of "Kessel" (John Rhys-Davies) has had him turned into a cyborg who will obey his every command. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that although it had an interesting plot and plenty of pyrotechnics the action scenes seemed too artificial and at times the acting was equally insufficient. That's not to say that this film was necessarily bad but it definitely needed a bit more polish and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Slightly below average.

I was not expecting much, I knew it would be cheesy and that it was a movie not to be taken seriously. However, I am not entirely sure what to make of Cyborg Cop. The acting I didn't think was too bad, I like John Rhys Davies and he is good value as the villain. Rufus Swart is also fun, and while over-the-top at times David Bradley's performance is hardly bland either. The story is derivative and holds few surprises but I never found it dull really, and the soundtrack is decent. However, Alonna Shaw is rather annoying, and the editing especially in the action sequences, of which I have seen worse but generally unexciting, is choppy. The script is uneven to me, Kessel has some fun lines but a lot of it verges on unintentionally cheesy, the ending is stupid to say the least and the characters are rather stock with not much done with the titular character to make him interesting. In conclusion, I don't consider it a great movie but I can think of much worse, if anything I'm very neutral on Cyborg Cop. 5/10 Bethany Cox

This movie wasn't as bad as I'd expected it to be. The plot: a renegade cop, Jack (David Bradley, great B-action-flick guy) goes into the jungle (in Jamaica I think), to find his lost brother, who has been turned into a cyborg by a charismatic bad guy, Kessel (played by John Rhys-Davies in perhaps one of his best roles ever) - while looking for him, Jack encounters many bad guys whose asses he must kick, and he also scores with some bimbo (Played by Alonna Shaw, who probably is a nice person in real life, but p*ssed me off in the movie)

The Highlight of the movie is the Evil Cyborg, Quincy (played by Rufus Swart, who I don't think said a single word during the entire movie..and it appears to be his last movie too!) - he has this really cool knife-glove he puts on to slash his enemies, looks great!

I won't reveal to much about the movie, go see it! It's brilliant! I laughed my ass of, especially at the end, when Jack fools Kessel..it's brilliantly written and conceived! (or maybe not)

I give this movie 6/10, because it's very entertaining, but still a crap-flick though...the tourist-bag Jack wears throughout the movie looked so silly, maybe that's why the bad guys aren't afraid of him, because he looks like a total wussy, with a gold belt... John Rhys-Davies has a lot of good lines, and he steals EVERY scene he's in.. the same goes whenever Rufus Swart is in a scene, his foamy rubber "cyborg-legs/arms" looks hilariously cheap!

HEY! LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU!

I miss the 90s I really do, and I remember this film profoundly when I was a kid especially the sex scene, kidding . Now, let's get serious and cut to the chase. Cyborg cop is one of those low-budget films that were inspired by the popularity of "Terminator 2". Of course, this is not your typical "Terminator" movie, but still it has some entertainment for home video. This is also one of the first rare movies that includes hard core "Commando" like action, cyborgs and martial arts. And I think that makes this movie pretty cool. Our leading hero is Jack Ryan (typical name for all American movie hero from low budget films, you know, the usual names are John, Jack, Bill, Ray, James, Jim, Mason, Matrix you know, the cool, strong sounding names), the DEA agent. He received a message from his brother who disappeared in action somewhere in Caribbean islands and of course, he convinced (through violence) his boss to go there and investigate what happened with his brother Phillip. And over there, he finds out that there's more than some drug traffic, like more action scenes, and meeting a sexy reporter Kate, and of course a secret laboratory for cyborgs. And now, it's on you already know how this kind of movies end. Jack is played by David Bradley (best known for American Ninja sequels and American Samurai), a martial artist and actor who well, as you can see, acting his not his tougher side, but he gave us an interesting fighting scenes. But the character was interestingly written, with his "I don't give a damn" attitude, leather jackets and his waist bag, which he also has in the sequel. As a main villain, we have John Rhys Davies wait a minute He is a good actor, if not the best actor in the entire film, I never realized how some of good actors end up in a low budget, crappy films. But, John did several of them, so I think he was OK with that, he is the main, rich scientist called Kessler who created cyborg. He did pretty well in the film, but on occasions, he looked like some cliché, silly villain, with white suit and walking cane, with ridiculous accent. The leading lady Kate is played by Alonna Shaw. Ohhhh, that sexiness the lovely blonde of the early 90s love that, you remember her perhaps from Double Impact (1991), she was here just to look hot and have a sex scene with Jack, because her acting is also not that good. Jack's brother Philip is played by Todd Jensen, yet another low budget actor, I have seen him so many low budget films. And, there is a supporting villain, a cyborg named well, just cyborg, really menacing prototype who makes an interesting, mad faces, the dude looks funny and his, I mean, the "cyborg outfit", masked leg and arm, that looks like an expensive Halloween costume. Oh and I love those funny explosive, remote control airplanes and Jamaicans cheering for a good fight when Jack is taking over the bar Oh, and a fact that cyborgs were built by a German scientist now that was extremely funny and really unusual cliché.
