Benefits from a rollicking wise-ass performance from Kurt Russell but otherwise falls limp courtesy of too many corny gags.

A 'B'-movie-style Western meets Eastern, a supernatural 'chopsocky' fantasy with leading man Kurt Russell doing a feature-length impression of a dead movie star. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. [Blu-ray]

Violent 1980s martial-arts movie is a campy guilty pleasure.

Imperfect, yes...but still great cultish fun with Kurt Russell.

Works as a stand alone classic that features John Carpenter at his best.

Special effects don't mean much unless we care about the characters who are surrounded by them, and in this movie the characters often seem to exist only to fill up the foregrounds.
July 06, 2010
This is a bizarre, fun, action packed film, filled with wild characters and an adventurous, imaginative and campy spirit.

Contains the single drop-dead funniest moment in all of Carpenter's filmography.
November 15, 2009
A film to embody the Eighties, and justify them
April 15, 2005
Russell and Carpenter make a great team.
May 21, 2003
An upscale send-up.
July 22, 2005
The high-octane action comedy takes all that was worthwhile from decades of B-flicks and distills it into a maximum-concentration explosion of cinematic TNT.
