Stone Cold

Think "Commando" with bikers, all of the misdirected machismo from "Road House", and every other action movie trope you can think of, all nicely sliced and diced together. That is "Stone Cold". It never tries to be more than what it is. It has a simple setup far as story goes, decent action, it's well shot, has fast pacing, and pretty solid acting all around.

It's an early 90's movie about a cop going undercover to catch a biker gang, what more are you expecting out of this?

Enjoy!

This is one of the greatest action movies of 1991. first, we have the boz doing a great job acting. Before this movie i believe he had only done commercials. then we have lance henriksen playing the evil boss, chains. Lance Henriksen is a tour de force when playing a baddy. Lots of guns, explosions, naked girls, and motorcycles, make this a molotov cocktail of adventure and action. Boz if you ever read this review, i cant wait to see you do more action movies. you are the man. You are the original stone cold. Go out and rent or buy this movie because the boz never lets you down. This is one of the best crime movies of all time, but you have that fast paced slam bang action in there which makes this movie one of the best.

this is a surprisingly entertaining movie.it won't win any awards for originality.this plot line has been used several times,sometimes to better effect,sometimes not.as a matter of fact,Charlie Sheen would star in pretty much the same movie,Beyond the Law,one year later(1992).both are comparable efforts.any way,in Stone Cold Brian Bosworth,an ex football player,takes on the role of of the undercover cop.He does a surprisingly admirable job.it's strange that his film career didn't take off,as his acting ability equals(probably surpasses) that of Stallone and Shwarzennegger when they started out.He is certainly better than Van Damme.Lance Henrickson is well cast as the chief bad guy in the film.action abounds in this movie,leaving pretty much no dramatic moments.of course in most movies of this type,there is zero character development,but that can be forgiven in this case.the movie knows what it is and doesn't try to be something it's not.it is pure fun.oh,yeah,i almost forgot.William Forsythe also plays a baddie and is brilliant as always.this is definitely a great way to entertain yourself for 2 hours. 6/10

I just saw this in a retro showing, and it's really one of those films that you shouldn't enjoy. It came out at the tailend of the muscles action era which was at its height in the 80s.

We don't need to bother about the storyline. Our badass hero has not any acting skills and is out to bring down a biker gang from hell. Lots of explosions, lots of female exploitation and sexism, bad one liners and terrible dress sense, yet it's so much fun. It's so wrong but you can't help but go along for the ride.

As a throw back, it's fun and downright silly escapism. Granted I was finding the sexism too much at times, but apart from that it's a fun night's viewing. Give it a whirl.

Sometimes, just sometimes you see a film that rocks your world. A film that normally you wouldn't even pick off the shelf unless someone told you about it. Stone Cold is that film.

Starring man of the day Brian 'the Boz' Bosworth this low budget action vehicle is one of the most fun actioners that I have ever seen. What's right with it? In terms of your normal studio producer films … very little. The acting is poor, the script dreadful, continuity (especially the hysterically bad bike chase) is just atrocious and that's just the opening few scenes.

But this film hits where it needed to. The action. The set pieces are a by numbers low budget master class, how to make the most out of very, very little. Henrikson is a superb villain and Bosworth makes the most of his limited abilities to chew the scenery whenever it gets into his way.

As I said not a perfect film but pretty damn perfect nights entertainment.
