    One of Dolph's best...

    I saw this movie recently...n i bet this is one of the best movie Dolph Lundgren has ever acted in. Dolph acts as a tough cop fighting the drig mafia, suddenly large amounts of drugs have been stolen from the mafias & non drug addicts are also being killed...n the movie takes a turn from action to a sci-fi thriller. If u really are a Dolph Lundgren fan..u would'nt like to miss this one..

    Fun, stupid, hilarious 80's Sci-Fi at its best.

    You've got to like 80's Sci-Fi to really appreciate movies like this. I rank it right up there with Terminator, Hawk The Slayer, The Guyver, Highlander, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for good, hilarious sci-fi fun.

    No, I don't think the mainstream public would like a movie like this, but if you like B-rated horror movies & sci-fi, then you should find this one to your liking too. Beastmaster, Krull, and many other movies from that era come to mind when I see this one.

    Wonder if it's available on DVD yet....nope. Darn. Maybe one day.

    8 out of 10 stars.

    It's a classic

    I was surprised to see such a low rating for this movie. I've probably seen this movie like 10 times. And after my wife found out I'm a Dolph Lundgren fan, I think the first thing she asked me was, "do you own "I Come In Peace"?", because she was already a fan of the movie too. Anyway, if you like sci-fi action movies, check it out.

    One of my Favourite Dolph films

    My video of this film is called "Dark Angel". It's a great Dolph film, I also like 'The Punisher' and 'Big Showdown in Little Tokyo'. Dark Angel is a bit different...I enjoyed watching the relationships unfold between him and his police partner and him and his girlfriend. The scientist character is brilliantly overacted...although I know some computer programmers who are stressed out in the same manner! Some years ago, whilst watching the video at my brother's house in surround sound, my son walked into the room during a bit where a disk is flying around a room striking things...and he actually ducked! It still is the best bit of surround that I ever heard. Caine's final words to the alien are classic!

    The Best Lundgren movie

    You can say what you want about Dolph Lundgren - yes, he's made some HORRIBLE movies and at times can make Keanu Reeves look talented - but I Come in Peace is a sizeable cut above the rest of his body of work. The plot is OK, has a few interesting touches but just as many derivative ones, but that's not what makes this film so good. It is the entertaining interaction of Lundgren and Brian Benben - their constantly ripping each other and acting macho, it's hilarious. And the other supporting characters are fun to watch, too, from Matthias Hues as the one note alien heavy, to Jay Bilas as the alien good guy, to the hilarious Mark Lowenthal as Bruce, the paranoid scientist genius. Even Lundgren gets into the act with some awesome one-liners that even Ah-nuld would be proud to have uttered. A 5-star B-movie classic!

      Jack Caine: And you go in pieces, asshole.

    • Alternate versions
      Due to Ascot Filmverleih targeting a "not under 16" rating from the FSK, the German theatrical version was cut to reduce violence in a few scenes. The uncut version was later released on video, though despite the "not under 18" rating, it was light indexed in Germany by the BPjM from 1991 up until 2016. Shortly after being de-indexed, the FSK have since re-rated the uncut version to "not under 16".
