A decent idea scuppered by poor production design and dreary direction. In the right hands a remake could be great.

The whole premise is an excuse for Arnold to run around, displaying various acts of badassery. It isn't really an incredibly smart film, but it is often an effective one and, as an entertaining action thriller, it works.

This movie is an absolute classic that predicted the extremes of reality TV before there was reality TV (okay so we aren't killing people on TV yet). A interesting sci-fi concept and great action.

Kind of a cool story. Of course, it's classic Schwarzenegger -- the good guy who has to kick a lot of butt to set everything right. I enjoy this one.
