Review of Universal Soldier (1992) by Baurushan J — 25 Jun 2013

This movie was amazing and surprised the hell outta me. This is Universal Soldier starring Col. Guile: Jean-Claude Van Damme and Ivan Drago: Dolph Lundgren (and directed by the famous Roland Emmerich who will later know for future disaster movies such as Stargate, Independence Day, Godzilla, The Day After Tomorrow, 10000 B.

C. and 2012). Anyway the story is about Luc played by JCVD and Scott played Dolph who are both rival soldiers and are each shot dead during a duel. But they are taken away by the Government and regenerated to be made into robot-like near-perfect soldiers known as Universal Soldiers.

But both Luc and Scott get their memories back of the moments before they died and Luc escapes first which causes Scott to chase after him. Luc meets Veronica played by Ally Walker which encourages Scott to try and kill Luc even more with his newly found girl and this causes a wild chase.

This film was amazing and I mean amazing. Yeah I know Stargate, Godzilla and Independence Day were Roland Emmerich's earliers but if you want to go into his actual very first movies, then check this out.

Universal Soldier gets a 8.5/10.
