Plot:
Sure to appeal to enthusiasts of extreme sports, this revamped Rollerball (a remake of Norman Jewison's 1975 original) transplants the violent hybrid of hockey, polo, and barroom brawling to th...( read more

MCT:August 12, 2008Wow. Ummm, this movie was basically people roller skating to the sounds of Slipknot. I guess it could be worse....it could be Stone Sour?...? Honestly, this was a huge pile of shit action movie that pretended to have a plot. The owners of the game see that ratings increase when people get hurt, which amazed me as the ratings doubled in near seconds after someone got almost killed...not sure how someone can tune in MORE, but, I didn't write this. In any event, just rent Rollerball if you're in the mood for a rollerskate movie, or buy some tapes of the old rollerball show that used to be on TNN, or SLAMBALL! Man - Slamball. There was a really good idea.
ps.During the actual "Rollerball" scenes, it's basically people skating around and jumping without much going on, or as Lana said "It's been the same thing for the last 30 minutes", then she went to sleep. Go McTiernan. -
MCT:July 25, 2008You spend half the movie wondering what's going on, the other half not caring. Very disappointed with the film. It was cool seeing a young Sayid.

What to say?
The plot was...no.
The acting was...no.
The effects and cinematography were...no.
The ending was...nonexistent.
The soundtrack - yes, finally something - the soundtrack was decent enough. -

Removing the social critique of the original, this updated version of Rollerball is violent, confusing, and choppy. Klein makes for a bland hero.

MCT:May 22, 2008Two hours of my life that I will never get back! If I had paid to watch this piece of crap I would have demanded a refund. I did not buy it, and I can't believe they were selling it. I gave it one star just for the hot chicks in tight leather costumes. Other than that, this movie was JUNK!!! It was not the least bit believable, or interesting. TBS put both versions of Rollerball on consecutive nights and I watched both to do a little comparison/contrast. Here's my verdict:
Next time, just play the original twice, because it's twice as good. -
MCT:May 13, 2008The 2001 remake of Rollerball is more an action than a philosophical-type movie like the original 1975 one was.
The plot and characters are basically the same.
Chris Kline, LL Cool J, Rebecca Romijn-Stamos and Jean Reno star in this John McTiernan directed movie. -

This is quite possibly one of the lamest movies ever made. The trailer for the movie made it somewhat appealing. But the movie itself was terrible. The actions scenes on the track were too fast, so much so that it was hard to see what was going on.

It sounded like such a great concept, but blew chunks. Some the action sequences were top notch though.

Very very very very very bad movie.I don't know what was Reno thinking when he accepted the role in this movie..........

Chris Klein is a waste an over payed shitty actor with no talent and well this movie sucked just like him.

Another case of shitty remake syndrome. It has LL Cool J. What else is really necessary to know about this garbage.
-
MCT:November 25, 2007
This movie made it official: HOLLYWOOD HAS NO SENSE OF ORIGINALITY ANYMORE! I didn't even like this one.

Not as bad as the critics would have you believe but the original still holds its own today.
This version played it more for action and sfx than story. -
MCT:September 24, 2007
Extremely bad movie. I gave it an extra star because some of it is so bad it falls into that "so bad it's funny" category. It's not as bad as Wing Commander, but it's close.

Everyone says that this is a tremendously dumbassed craptastic suckfest and the absolute worst of the remakes in recent years.
See the original '75 version starring James Caan instead. It rules! -
MCT:August 20, 2007
Paul was in this and he was the only decent actor in it. Pual > all
Even if Raven claims this killed ECW. -
MCT:August 13, 2007the acting was pretty bad, but its good to watch with a bunch of friends if u want a simple, though confusing, action movie
-
MCT:August 3, 2007
Sooooooo bad. Too bad. Lacks even the strange but understated social commentary of the original. Everything here is obvious.
-
MCT:July 29, 2007
Bad Movie, What A Cheap Sport And Only The Beggining Was Good, Bad Acting, The Places In The Movie Were Bad.

MCT:July 1, 2007
Uh, I don't understand the point of this movie since they took away all the social/political meaning. So it's just meant to be a mindless, violent action movie? It seems this "remake" is endorsing everything that the original set out to denounce. How is that for irony?
Besides all that, apparently it's just a really bad movie. -
MCT:June 25, 2007
Look at these three fellas in the poster....
do I need to say more?the worst cast ever!!!
I wil never watch it again... -
MCT:June 8, 2007
I wish I could give it zero stars, I also wish I could go back in time and stop myself from watching it but apparently that won't happen either.
