This movie is ridiculous.


Upon pausing your dvd right before John Travolta is impaled by a nuke, you can clearly see that it is a scarecrow or CPR dummy made up to look like him. Totally inconsistently stuffed with cotton, also did any vehicle in this film NOT EXPLODE?! A hilarious watch though.

Well actually the nuke was dead so it wouldn't explode when it's contained like that, but I do agree. Pretty easy to notice how unreal it is.

That's not all...
The girl in the movie is just a sorry ass park ranger and she acts like Rambo and stuff... gimme a break!! She can't do anything except say that such animal is extinct and can't be hunted but in the movie she's some hot shot... P-A -THETIC

Lighten up, this is an enjoyable watch. Does everything have to be oscar-worthy to be considered a good film? It was meant to be unbeleivable action, and Travolta was meant to be just a little over the top, but who cares?

reply

Ridiculous but entertaining. Right up there with The Rock, Terminator 2, and every other memorable action movie.

I would've had the bad guys some how survive. It's so predictable to kill the bad guys in the end. Some how some way Travolta's character could've survived. Hollywood is determined to make the good guys always triumph. I like movies where the bad guys have yet nother day to do their evil again.

"Somehow" is one word, not two.

Shamed by your english?
