Thanks for the memories!

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I haven't see this yet, but from what normal critics have said so far, i think i will definitely try it.. The best quoted comment i found was this "I have not seen Lee Majors since the "fall guy" and "the six million dollar man" it was a treat to see him again after all these years. It was a far stretch from being a TV star to a serial killer. I thought he did an excellent job portraying a serial killer. " And i was surprise to see Michael Paré :)And i am totally in agreement with the above - it's made me want to watch it.Lee Majors was rarely on screen , i saw "STEEL" from 1979 when i was just 11 year's old.. so this is going to be a treat for me :)

Being a fatalist at heart, I picked up this film at the local videostore to find one of the most boring movies to hit their shelves. I couldn't keep my attention to this almost at all. It reminds me of something on TV (just more drawn out). The director was trying to lead you along a police-investigation tale (with a solid premise and story, mind you), but I can't help but shudder at the fact that these movies are being released like this!The sound and music were thrown-together clichés and the story added all of the religious BS from every other murder mystery of our time. Se7en makers should be thankful that David Fincher was working with them and not this guy, because that film was along the same lines as this one, in a way. I'm surprised that filmmakers still try to make cop-dramas like this. At least they should throw some abnormal camera-work or effects in there to spice it up a little. This just seems to exist instead of grabbing you from its videostore shelf, like I said.A gave it a 2/10 for seeing Philip Michael Thomas again since his album and Miami Vice days, but otherwise, don't waste $3 on this at the videostore. You'll be disappointed if you're trying to find entertainment.

I rented this from Blockbuster last week, out of curiosity... Especially since I had not seen Lee Majors in anything for such a long time.I have to say, this was a solid film. It had a completely original take on the serial killer genre... making it more personal then anything I've seen. Michael Pare' plays a former FED who has now taken a job as a Police Detective. He is joined by Philip Michael Thomas (where has this guy been) who plays his new partner. They have a history as they were both Federal Agents. While Pare' does a solid job, it's Thomas' weird (almost creepy) performance that gives their partnership spice. Add this to Lee Majors spectacularly creepy and messed up performance, and you have a whole lot of things to keep your interest. While the film is far from perfect... some sound issues and a cliché or two... it is a fresh enough take on the serial killer genre to make it worth a rental. I think the director Ace Cruz has something to be proud of, and it would be nice to see what the guy could do with a real budget. I watch a ton of films every week (and pay a lot in rental fees), and many of the filmmakers / directors of the films I see are just going through the motions to get the film done... where Ace seems to have an actual vision.Check it out!

Spoilers ahead - Spoilers ahead - Spoilers aheadAfter buying the dirt-cheap DVD on Ebay, my expectations were not exactly high, and for good reason: the movie is too boring to spend any time on, not even in order to waste some time away on a dozy Sunday afternoon.Most of the technical details - sound, special effects and so on - are nothing big to write home about (were these guys using blank cartridges?), but they are solid enough for a B-movie, no more and no less. And that's it for the positive aspects. The story is...oh well, weak. And I mean, really weak. A retired, reborn janitor (Lee Majors) falls prey to insanity and goes on a tour of bloody revenge against his fallen and sinful children, who were adopted away from him right after birth. Two veteran police officers, both just retired from the Bureau, lead the investigation. In a final climax Officer No. 1 (Michael Paré) leaves behind his colleagues and confronts the insane killer, just to find out that...ohhh, spank me hard, how original...he is one of these adopted kids, as well. If the story sounds scanty and fragmented, it's not because I'm a lousy narrator - that's really all there is to it. And it's not even told in any way that could make up for its deficiencies. Camera work is lousy at best - too slow, too incoherent, too often focused on some scene of no interest, leaving the audience alone with grasping the salient points, with reconstructing the story.The acting is another thing to scare me in this movie. Did they pay the cast at all? Did they whip these guys? Torture them? Or why else is it that the entire cast appears as tormented, bored, and disinterested as can be? Michael Paré - well, mediocre as ever. In his facial gestures the guy is about as flexible as a solid granite block. And about as attractive. Philip Michael Thomas (Officer No. 2) - he's had his big times. And these are over. For good. And what in all the world happened to my childhood hero Lee Majors? Sorry to say that, but he looks like he's about to perish on the spot, slow, without the least bit of esprit or energy, bored, and so on and so on. They all seem on the brink of one profound and long coma.What remains is the impression that I have wasted 90 minutes of my life. And the anger about having done just that. A weak 2 out of 10. Ugghhh...
