Review by bellino-angelo2014

In a not too distant future (tho isn't never made clear) toxic waste has reduced water on Earth. Only a few have the possibility of decontaminate the water from a giant warship, and Minna (Brigitte Nielsen) is the tyrannical ruler. The land dwellers have to battle Minna and they are helped by the daughter of the rebel leader, Mike Erikson and Jennifer's brother Rocky (Matthias Hues).

HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT has an appalling score of 2,3, only four reviews with the highest score that has a 4 and only 291 ratings. All signs that a movie is indeed terrible. Yet, why I watched it? Well, sometimes I love to feed my masochist side and watch some obscure stuff, but this time wasn't worth it. The acting was very lazy by everyone. Nielsen was ok as the villain but as for the others... I have seen better performances in Michael Ironside or Jean Claude Van Damme movies. There was a guy who was good only in kicking like Van Damme, Rocky that was there only for the sake of beating the snot and showing his huge muscles. And the editing was probably the sloppiest with some badly edited shoots like the one where Minna is thrown to her death as we don't even see Rocky kicking her and despite she is in the submarine we see her thrown backwards and then... she is nowhere to be seen. You just have to see it to believe it!

A terrible movie with lazy acting, bad editing (made probably by someone who was heavily drunk and wasn't fired yet) and dull pacing. I would recommend it only for people suffering from insomnia, as when it was over, I soon went to bed (no joking)!
