Audience Reviews

Sierbahnn 7/10 May 02, 2026
This is not a masterpiece, but it is a solid action-movie with a fantastic protagonist and a lovely premise and plot. The staging is hokey at points, but it looks good enough, the characters are engaging and the action punchy. Kurt of course steals the show completely, and the character has a great arc. This is well-directed and deserves more credit than it got when it was released.
