Demolition Man Review

This is one of those movies that motivated Last Action Hero to be made. That being said, it’s a great representation of the genre. If you like the 90’s action movies, this one should be a classic. It’s got a good idea, and a fun premise. I’ll admit, it probably isn’t for everybody…but I really enjoyed it. If it’s not too expensive you should at least give it a chance.

Demolition Man Overview
Searching for new directions, Sylvester Stallone starred in this farcical, 1993 SF piece about an ex-cop (Stallone) freed from 36 years of forced hibernation to help catch a criminal (Wesley Snipes) who released himself from a similar incarceration. The futuristic story finds Los Angeles a sea of Taco Bells and enforced peace, and within that satiric overview Stallone’s character becomes a gun-toting fish out of water. The film plays like a live-action cartoon, and while there is nothing particularly wrong with that, Demolition Man is a rather flat experience. The irony of a peaceable society that both requires and despises its bloody saviors has been captured far more profoundly in movies like Dirty Harry. Sandra Bullock costars. The DVD release has optional full-screen and widescreen presentations, production notes, theatrical trailer, Dolby sound, optional Spanish soundtrack, and optional French and Spanish subtitles. –Tom Keogh
