This movie is outstanding!!!!, 5 December 1998
1/10
Author: anonymous from Ohio

This has got to be one of the five best movies of all time, it is absolutely amazing. Dolph should have won many academy awards already in his illustrious career, but he tends to be overlooked. When I think of exciting action, I think of Dolph Lundgren. Dolph is also very versatile, he can play almost any role, from the sinister yet likable Ivan Drago, to the amazing Major Frank Cross, and who can forget him as He-man, I thought he should have got best actor for that. In this film he does an excellent job as Eric Brogar, he truly shows that anyone can go to the Olympics, if they train hard enough. Keep on making those great movies Dolph!!! GO DOLPH!!!!!!!!!!!
