Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.
SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
adonis98-743-186503 A CIA agent gets caught up in political intrigue after he gets brought in to solve the murder of a Cuban ambassador. Dolph Lundgren (Rocky IV, The Expendables) and Josh Ashton (Beverly Hills Cop, Bevery Hills Cop II) star in this disappointing and forgettable 90's film that even the best actors and directors in the world could not possibly have saved. Sure the leads are pretty good but the story as a whole is half cooked and the movie drags alot in certain moments. Definitely not one of Dolph Lundgren's best 90's films or best films in general... (5.0/10)
hrkepler 'The Shooter' (aka 'Hidden Assassin' which I find much cooler title) is quite trivial on the plot wise - special agent goes to Prague to catch supposed assassin, but things aren't like they seem. But the movie is well shot - bleak and cold cinematography creates nice '90s Eastern-European vibe, and somehow manages to feel artistic. By the time of filming this movie Dolph Lundgren's acting range had improved a lot and he is not as wooden as in some of his earlier movies. Heavely flawed, but still enjoyable time passer.
theduke_87 Though this film would be classed as mediocre by most, I rate this movie fairly high. The scenery is fantastic, the soundtrack is interesting with its combination of suspense and smooth jazz, and with Dolph Lundgren side-kicked with John Ashton you get a smooth, even dose of action, adventure and comedy.Though the movie does seem slow at times, and you tend to forget the characters names or the reason why Dolph is actually there in the first place, the movie does provide decent suspense and action throughout.I didn't like the fact that Dolph's main wound (his arm) was self-inflicted and rather, well... pointless. However, the rooftop-gunfight scene (end) and the part where Dolph takes out a sniper with a handgun are simply a must see! (Believable? It is within Dolph's power, ha-ha!) The ending is simply awesome. Enough said.This movie is fantastic, you'll either rate it as a masterpiece or just a decent, action flick; but nothing lower.
ang1150 I got it because I'm a Maruschka Detmers fan, and I wasn't disappointed in her part, however limited it was in showcasing her talents. I didn't take this movie seriously, and I'll bet the actors had fun making this movie.The scenery and location were very impressive, the interaction between the main characters was good, with a touch of (unintended?) comedy throughout. Some of the scenes were unbelievable, but that just added to the feeling that you couldn't take this seriously as an action-adventure movie. For example, how could Michael pass by all the security points, evil bad guys pursuing him unscathed? If it isn't taken seriously, well that's the fun of it.I had never seen Dolph Lundgren act before, and was comparing him to Arnold... both are hard workers.The story line is this movie's weakest point, along with a few minor characters who obviously were put in the movie for appearance but no acting ability whatsoever.Overall, I liked it and after repeated viewings, I still enjoy it.
