The one thing I really hated about this movie


Was that stupid Owen character. I mean he was so obviously a ripoff of Q (and they made him gay for some reason). He was completely unnecessary and just a flat out obnoxious character.

The rest of the movie was kickass however, especially the prison scenes.

Sorry but his voice was just so damn annoying and being a very passionate James Bond fan just made me hate him even more. The film would have been just fine if he weren't in it.

There's an interview from about 1993 on Youtube with Stallone, Arnie and Brucie where they liken their (then) movies to the Bond movies of the 60's and 70's with the one-liners...

Around the 24 minute mark... I haven't seen this in years, but remember it well!! (Although Brucie's singing segment was a bit... well, just glad he stuck to movies)

Yeah, Stallone was always my favorite of the big action stars for pretty much that reason... there's another clip on youtube of him and Arnie after some event and they're in a car-park about to get into their respective 4x4s and Arnie congratulates Sly on his new one and drives off while Stallone hangs out with fans and poses for photos... maybe Arnie was just busy that day...!

Planet Hollywood should've been great though - never went to one either... :(

I liked Arnie's mid to late 80's films and I really liked his performance in Maggie, but I just find Stallone more watchable - even in his (Let's say) duds like Over The Top... although saying that, I still can't bring myself to watch Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot... ;)

For me the worst thing in this film (not movie) was the late Brion James trying to do a co*ckney English accent and failing miserably.
