Average Rating: 
Rating:  - An enjoyable story for the imaginative viewer
Many people dislike this film because it seems boring or confusing to them. I say all you need is a little imagination to find the beauty of this simple sci-fi story. It seems to take place in a very small part of a very big world. Almost like a tiny glimse into a great novel. While the big story going on far away is deep and complex, the smaller story of these few individuals who came in contact with Omega Doom is more subtle.
I won't spoil it for you, but I recommend watching this ... Read More
Rating:  - Somewhat disturbing, but it has its beauty
As a sci-fi fan, I liked this movie.
It starts in a distrubing way, in totally demolished, post-war buildings.
Dead bodies lying everywhere... There has been a nuclear war and
the humans are dead, only cyborgs remained. The groups of cyborgs
fight each other. But then Omega Doom (the good cyborg) comes,
destroys the bad cyborgs, leaves the good cyborgs alive, and departs.
The end is definitely optimistic, it's a happy end. So, the movie gave me
a moral satisfaction ... Read More
Rating: - Call me Mr Weird but I liked it...
I think some of this film's reviewers are so 'blown away' by films with excesive CGI, big budgets - and even bigger names - that they either won't, or cant, see the good in lesser offerings. This film makes so many sly references to other films that part of the fun is spotting them.
Take the opening where we see a foot coming down on a pile of human bones and skulls. Terminator, right? Then there's all the other stuff that people have picked up on by Sergio Leonne but why has no one mentioned ... Read More
Rating: - Not Supposed to be Van Damme
Nah, I don't think it's a horrible movie. Sure it lacks a lot of action that movies of the period had, but I never thought of this as an action movie anyway. It seemed to me to be more like a comic book/graphic novel meets 70's samurai movie meets spaghetti western. Despite the obvious overarching situation (apocalypse, possibility of humans returning, obvious society gone to hell), it pretty much all but ignores that and focuses on the problem at hand: ridding the robot town of the "bad guys." It ends with a ... Read More
Rating: - Rutger Hauer still blows me away
Doesn't matter how "good" or "bad" a film is: If Rutger Hauer is in it, he'll upstage everybody. He can't help it. That's the way he's always been and the way he'll always be. Many Rutger Hauer fans understand this about him, which is why we're not as hard on films like "Omega Doom" as some others might be, nor are we critical of Hauer for appearing in them. The man needs a paycheck. The man has to eat.
Rutger Hauer is one of the world's most unusual and most magnificent actors, yet the shocking ... Read More
