    Diabolical man! Oh, but I like Sandra Bullock. A star for her!
  • June 8, 2009
    This was cool when it first came out, a big action blockbuster with a decent cast. It is cool and the future effects are nice but its very daft and sooooo needs to have Arnie in it instead haha Snipes makes the film really, the rest is naff including a very annoying Bullock. It c...( read more)ould have been a really awesome hard action flick but its just not quite there, alittle bit B-movie, the sets look like sets and it rips on other films too much. Just needed some quality. A better Stallone film though.

    Another solid effort from all involved. Yes, even the tons of comedy relief stuck in there. You'd never know that Rescue Me could be so good looking at Dennis Leary in this though.

    80's action and friendly-liberal 90's collide with mixed results.

    Good futuristic sci-fi. I liked this movie a lot because of the actors and the hard hitting fight scenes. The interpretation of the future is also a nice touch.

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Demolition Man is sleek and empty as well as brutal and pointless. It feels computer engineered, untouched by human hands. A real pod movie. full review

    I was disappointed not to see a Sylvster Stallone vs. Jesse "The Body" Ventura fight. They should have a DVD featuring all of the deleted/extended scenes.

    It would be my absolute pleasure to discuss the classic that is Demolition Man. Would totally love there to be a sequel so Stallone and Snipes could work together again. They are the dream team.
