Review of Dollman (1991) by Grace S — 04 Jul 2008

Of all the movies Full Moon Entertainment produced, I would say that "Dollman" was one of their best offerings. Sure, the budget is low and there is nothing too great about the story. But at least it entertains for 70 odd minutes.

Brick Bardo is a "Dirty Harry" type cop, who infamously lays waste to the scumbags on his planet. Not surprisingly, an old enemy of his plots his elimination, and then we get to see Bardo's powerful magnum in action as he takes on the villains on his home planet... And ours. Clint Eastwood, eat your heart out!!

Tim Thomerson was magnificent in the "Trancers" films, as the rogue, time-travelling cop, Jack Deth. So it was great to see Thomerson playing a different character, so not unlike the character of Jack Deth.

I actually saw "Dollman" before "Trancers", but I think both films are among Thomerson's best work.

A shame that Thomerson hasn't been in anything nearly as good since. But you may have seen him in something, as he continues to star in movies.
