3.0 out of 5 stars Bible Crasher, 6 Feb 2008
By M. S. Skidmore (Kinver, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
80s action icon turned direct to video junk peddler Dolph Lundgren continues in the vein of 'if you can't get it done right, then do it yourself' by directing his recent slate of output. Beginning with 'THE DEFENDER' and following up with the excellent 'THE RUSSIAN SPECIALIST' (aka 'THE MECHANIK'), Dolph has displayed a wider range behind the camera than he ever did infront of movies like 'SHOWDOWN IN LITTLE TOKYO'. With a genuine directorial style that reminds me of the days when movies were actually paced well and took time to tell a story, Mr Lundgren is old skool all the way.

His latest picture, 'MISSIONARY MAN' is another step in the right direction. The story (a modern riff on PALE RIDER) has Dolph playing a lone rider blazing into town to avenge the death of his former army friend against a greedy local businessman. He is hellbent on building a super casino in the local area at the behest of the mostly native american townspeople. This mix of native american mysticism with contemporary action movie violence is a difficult brew to pull off - but Dolph does very well. His style is mean, moody and brooding with dark visuals and scenes of brutal violence that are exceptionally effective. Adding to that, he is looking better as he gets older - his face more interesting as if he has seen a lot in his life and this accentuates his characters inner turmoil. Granted, its not the most original or well acted movie out there, but in the realm of direct to video 'premieres' - it's standing head and shoulders above many of the competition (Cough * Steven Seagal *Cough).

The picture and audio are fine for this kind of film. The movie was obviously shot on digital and it looks like it! However, they have attempted to saturate the colours and bleach out the imagery - in some sequences it works very well, but on the whole it looks quite awkward. However, that is a minor quibble.

Again, Dolph's movies are just getting better and better. Gone are the days of strange direct to video efforts made by people just using him for his marquee name value - now, his films seem to have feeling and genuinely entertain. His slow build ups culminating in strong bursts of extreme violence are reminiscent of movies made in the 70s and not the trash that is generally being pushed out today with stupid avid farts and attention diverting editing - it's good to see Dolph is doing things his way. Well worth seeking out.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good friday night popcorn movie., 9 May 2008
By Adrian Taylor "NED" (Uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
First off I can't believe some of the negative comments about this movie. If this was made in the late 80s early 90s people would love this movie. If your a fan of movies like Kick boxer, Double Impact, Out for Justice, Passenger 57 and Raw Deal this is for you. I enjoyed this movie but wouldn't class it as a Oscar contender. This is the first movie I seen of Dolph's in a long time and his directing is better than his acting. All I say is give it a shot you might like it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pale Rider?, 5 Feb 2008
By deadteddy (Bridgend) - See all my reviews
  
A strange man enters a small town and starts to defend the people from a gang of crooks, his favourite read... the bible and his favourite drink... a shot of tequila.

If you wanted to sum this movie up as quick as possible then I think the easiest way to do that is to tell you that it takes a hell of a lot of plot from Pale Rider. As you can imagine though it's not really up to the task of a cracking bringing up-to date of that tale. On the plus side the film is not that bad and is certainly watchable. Dolph does a reasonable job if sadly some of the other on screen talent aren't quite up to scratch. If you're a big Dolph fan or you want something a bit different on the B-Movie side then you won't go to far wrong with this.
