This movie tries to be so cool and edgy, but just comes off as cheesy and sleazy. It’s unfortunately par for the course for Dolph Lundgren movies of this era, and this one stoops lower in the sleaze category than some of his comparable fare. The action isn’t even good, which for Bruce Lee’s son is downright shameful.

Closest comparison: It’s like Lethal Weapon by way of The Punisher (1989).
Setting: Buddy Cop
Plot: Buddy Cop
Tone: Buddy Cop
This is a pretty standard buddy cop movie of its era. The plot is as fun and outlandish, the action scenes as over-the-top, and the dialogue as too-perfectly-quippy as you might expect. There’s more sexuality than most of its contemporaries, which may explain its relative obscurity, but the rest of the film is solid action fare.

Closest comparison: It’s like Lethal Weapon with Sylvester Stalone and Kurt Russell.
Setting: Buddy Cop
Plot: Exoneration
Tone: Buddy Comedy
