THis movie is more than an action film, it's neo noir. I admit it is a little simplistic at times, it also has a lot to it. many audiences these days think film noir is dead, they are wrong. A lot of people do not have the patience for fim noir, but if you do ,it pays off. No one in this movie is innocent. Kurt Russell's character starts out bad, but when he realises what he has done, he seeks redemption. Kevin Costner is an especially evil villian and he does a good job of it. ( By the way, I HATE Kevin Costner!!!) Also the violence in the movie is done in the style of Asian Action Hong Kong Cinema, which is more extreme than Americans are used to. This movie is by no means perfect, but it doesn't matter, because this was cool. Hey, It's an action movie, not Shakespeare. Action Movies aren't for too much thinking. THe style in this movie is not nessesarily unique, but it is seldom used, and it is done in a whole new way. There are plenty of twists and turns to keep you entertained. Give it a chance and I promise you will have fun.
This is a cheesy 80's action flick. It is another one of those movies that is so bad, it's actually good. It's not your typical 80's action movie, at least not completely. It tries to be hip and modern for young audiences, and still appeal to adults. It's got a MoTown Soundtrack and some Slasher movie style music. Action Jackson is an entertaining movie if your in the mood for something fun. Don't try to overanalyze it and you will enjoy it.
This movie does start a little bit slow, but it builds up in its suspense and intensity. The way the story is told you do not even highly suspect that anything is wrong until it comes out. The plot twists and turns are enough to keep you on the edge of your seat. This is the kind of movie Alfred Hichcock would have made had he still been living in 1992. At one point the background looks like it is straight out of "Vertigo". The music score even sounds like Bernard Herrmann. This is a very entertaning suspense thriller that "The Master" would have been proud of, and I'm shure many will find entertaning. " Final Analysis " makes for a great night' entertainment.
