the constant unneeded flips.
the constant change between urban 90's lingo, to an attempt at old english made me wonder what time period this is suppose to be.
the really really bad techno music sounded like they stole it from the matrix
the reuse of scenes
the really really bad one liners and there are a lot of them

can't take it. turned it off i don't know how far into it.

Well, since it came out at the exact same time as the matrix it didn't steal anything. It was just that kind of music that sounded hip in action sequences at that time. Together with action films. Christopher Lambert still had some popularity and big fanbases. Now if you see something with him, like this, it just feels like something old that accidently would be on in the middle of the night, when intelligent people sleep. I liked this movie and kind of Christopher Lambert in 99 and before when I was in the first half of my teens, I admit. I actually only have good memories of this film, but I know I shouldn't give it another go today... I must resist...
